Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
½ cup butter
⅔ cup brown sugar
½ cup coffee flavored liqueur (such as Kahlua®)
¼ cup raisins
¼ cup toasted pecans

Steps:

  • Place the sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
  • Return the pot to the stove over medium heat. Add the butter and brown sugar; cook and stir about 5 minutes until the sugar begins to caramelize. The sugar will be foamy at first, then the foam will subside and the sugar will begin to caramelize; cook until the color darkens slightly. Carefully stir in the coffee liqueur, then return the potatoes to the pot. Stir in the raisins and toasted pecans until the potatoes are slightly mashed and everything is well mixed.

Tips for Making Perfect Kahlua Sweet Potatoes:

  • Choose sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Pierce the potatoes with a fork before baking to help them cook faster.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour.
  • Let the potatoes cool for a few minutes before handling.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the potatoes in half lengthwise.
  • Scoop out the potato flesh, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  • Mash the potato flesh with butter, brown sugar, Kahlua, and spices.
  • Spoon the potato mixture back into the potato skins.
  • Top with marshmallows or pecans, if desired.
  • Bake the potatoes for an additional 15 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown.

Conclusion:

Kahlua sweet potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. With their rich, sweet flavor and creamy texture, these potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
