4 tablespoons regular sweet butter
2 tablespoons milk or 2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 - 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (to taste)
3 dashes ground nutmeg
2 lbs sweet potatoes, quartered lengthwise, and cut into 1/4 inch-thick (2 large or 3 medium to small potatoes) or 2 lbs yams, peeled quartered lengthwise, and cut into 1/4 inch-thick (2 large or 3 medium to small potatoes)
nutmeg, to taste after mashed
1/2 tablespoon butter, to taste

Preparation

Combine sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, vanilla and nutmeg in a large saucepan.
Bring to a slow boil, reduce, cover and cook over low heat stirring the sugar & milk mixture onto the potatoes.
Cook for approximately 30-45 minutes.
Remove from heat, mash in a large bowl combining the sugar, milk vanilla mixture into the potatoes.
For more buttery potatoes, add 1/2 teaspoon of butter while mashing.
