Potatoe Cherry Nut Mint Sweet Taste Bud Delight Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Boil sweet potatoes in Dutch oven until soft, about 1 hour. On cutting board or other prep surface, use a knife to cut potato skins length-wise and peel away skins of hot potatoes with fork. Skins should easily come off. Discard skins and place potatoes in large mixing bowl.
• 2. Using a hand mixer, mash potatoes. Add white sugar, evaporated milk, vanilla extract, 1/4 cup of melted butter or margarine, eggs, and salt. Mix all ingredients together until well blended. Set aside.
• 3. For Topping: Melt 1/2 cup butter or margarine. Cool slightly. Stir in brown sugar. Add flour, then pecans. Mix thoroughly.
• 4. Pour potato mixture into a 9" X 13" buttered casserole dish. Sprinkle topping over potato mixture, covering completely. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar and butter. Press onto the bottom of an 8x4-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. , In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth; fold in whipped topping. Spread over crust. Spoon pie filling over top. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, combine potatoes and salt. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by a generous 1/2 inch and set the pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a vigorous simmer. Cook potatoes just until tender and creamy inside, 10 to 25 minutes depending on size.
• Reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid, gently drain the potatoes and return them to the stove. Add butter, garlic and reserved cooking liquid to the pot and set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, swirling the pan and basting as needed so that the liquid coats the potatoes until they are well glazed, about 5 minutes.
• Tear the mint leaves into small pieces, stir them very gently into the potatoes, and take the pot off the heat. Squeeze on just enough lemon to add brightness, not sourness; taste as you go. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
