Combine:

3 c. flour
3 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. allspice
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Mix this and beat well:

3 eggs
1/2 c. peanut oil
1/2 c. butter
2 c. mashed sweet potatoes

Beat all this into dry mixture. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 cup chopped peanuts. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour in 4 greased coffee cans.

Good sliced as is or spread with a filling to make party treats. Cream cheese makes excellent spread. Bread is better if kept in closed container for a day before serving.
