Sweet potato pone is a Southern classic that is enjoyed by people of all ages. This easy-to-make dish is a delicious combination of sweet potatoes, spices, and eggnog whipped cream. The sweet potatoes are boiled until tender, then mashed and mixed with butter, sugar, eggs, and spices. The mixture is poured into a baking dish and baked until golden brown. The eggnog whipped cream is made by combining eggnog, heavy cream, and sugar. The mixture is whipped until stiff peaks form. The whipped cream is then dolloped on top of the sweet potato pone and served warm.

SWEET POTATO PONE WITH EGGNOG WHIPPED CREAM
This is a traditional Gullah dessert, but I love adding my own flair to my family's recipes. The addition of eggnog whipped cream enhances the natural sweetness of the sweet potatoes and compliments the fall spices in the pone.

EGGNOG SWEET POTATO BAKE
I love eggnog so I am always looking for new ways to use it. When I added it to mashed sweet potatoes I knew I had a winner. You can make this the night before and refrigerate it unbaked; the next day, let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.-Katie Wollgast, Florissant, Missouri

SWEET POTATO EGGNOG PIE
This is a delicious twist on traditional sweet potato pie. I had some left over baked sweet potatoes and some eggnog and ended up with a rich and creamy pie that my friends request again and again. Yams or potatoes work really well, too. Since eggnog is only commercially available during the holidays, I've resorted to making my own during other times of the year. I use various recipes from Allrecipes.com. Serve chilled with whipped cream.

- Bake the pone in a preheated oven to ensure it cooks evenly.
- Let the pone cool completely before serving. This will help it set properly.
- Serve the pone with eggnog whipped cream for a delicious and festive treat.
