WHIPPED SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE WITH BROWN SUGAR-COCONUT TOPPING



Whipped Sweet Potato Casserole With Brown Sugar-Coconut Topping image

This is an outstanding sweet potato casserole! The bourbon is only optional. It is important to only oven-bake the sweet potatoes and not to boil them. If you are serving this to a large crowd of people then prepare two separate casserole dishes. Make certain to purchase only very soft coconut, you may wish to chop the coconut if the shreds are large. Prep time does not include baking the sweet potatoes.
