"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4 or 5 sweet potatoes (2 to 2-1/2 lbs.)
1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
1/3 c. freshly squeezed orange juice
Zest of 1 orange
1/3 c. half-and-half or light cream
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until tender when pierced with a knife, about an hour. Remove from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle.

Lower the oven temperature to 350°F and butter a 9 x 9-inch baking dish (see notes below*). Scoop the flesh of the sweet potatoes into a large bowl and discard the skins. Add the butter and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the orange juice and zest, half-and-half, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Beat to combine, then taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add the eggs and beat on medium-high speed until the mixture light and fluffy, 1-1/2 to 2 minutes. Transfer the sweet potato mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and bake until puffed and slightly golden, about 25 to 35 minutes. (*You can also bake the sweet potatoes in individual 1-cup ramekins. Just cut the baking time by 10 to 12 minutes.)
