Remove milk or cream from fridge and leg stand at room temperature while preparing potatoes. Peel sweet potatoes and cut them in large chunks. Put them in a pan with enough salted water to cover - bring to a boil. Reduce heat and boil, covered about 25 min. or until very tender. Drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the butter, brown sugar, salt, and spices to the potatoes. Partially mash with hand masher, add 2 tbsp of the milk, mashing a bit more, until blended but still slightly bumpy. Add a little more milk, blend to desired consistency, transfer to a warm dish and serve.
