My good friend, Tina, just emailed me this fabulous and easy biscuit recipe. I love biscuits and was eager to try them. They are so wonderful and just slightly sweet so that you need nothing on them. This is a great Southern side dish that I served with Molasses-Mustard Glazed Pork, but would go beautifully with BBQ Chicken or Chicken Sticks. This would also be a wonderful side dish at Thanksgiving.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Grease one cookie sheet. In a large bowl, beat together until smooth:
1 cup mashed sweet potato
2/3 cup whole milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

In a small bowl sift together:
1 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon cinnamon

Add to the potato mixture. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the sweet potato mixture to form a soft dough. Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12 – 15 minutes, or until deep golden orange tinged with brown. Serve warm or let cool on a wire rack.

Makes one dozen biscuits
