Step 2: Using a fork prick a few holes into the skin of the sweet potato, then wrap in foil.
-
Step 3: Place on a small baking sheet and bake until soft and fork tender (about 1 to 1-1/2 hours).
-
Step 4: Cool slightly then remove all the pulp and place in a large bowl; cool the pulp to room temperature.
-
Step 5: Add in the butter, both sugars, cream, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, flour and vanilla; beat on medium speed of an electric mixer until smooth and combined.
