Sweet Potato Chocolate Chip Cookies

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter Softened
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or Vanilla Bean Paste
• 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
• 2 cups pastry flour cups, or 1 of each
• pastry flour I used 100%, and ended up with a cookie with a very delicate, cakey
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or Cinnamon
• 1 cup sweet potatoes Mashed
• 2 sweet potatoes large, at 400 F for one hour, until soft. Let them cool a bit and the skin pee
• 12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips High Quality
• powdered sugar Optional:, for dusting

1. Combine Butter, Egg, Maple Syrup, Brown Sugar, Vanilla, in medium bowl. I mixed the ingredients with a spatula, you can also mix with electric mixer until well blended.
2. In a separate bowl mix together dry ingredients: Flour, Salt, Baking Soda, Pumpkin Pie Spice.
3. Stir 1/2 the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stir in remaining flour mix until well combined.
4. Stir in Sweet Potatoes and Chocolate Chips.
5. Preheat oven to 350 F, lightly grease baking sheets.
6. Heap large tablespoons of batter onto cookie sheets about 1 1/2 inches apart.
7. Bake for about 15 minutes, until cooked thorough and tops of cookies are golden. (At 10,000 feet in Telluride these cookies took quite a bit longer to cook through, about 19-20 minutes. Use your judgement and taste preference to determine baking time.)
8. Let cool about 5 minutes and place on cooling racks.
9. Dust with powdered sugar.
