2 1/2 c. milk
3 med. sweet potatoes
2 c. sugar
1/2 c. whiskey or rum
3 eggs
1/4 stick butter
1/2 c. blanched slivered almonds (optional)

Put milk into 2-quart casserole. Grate potatoes, adding to milk as you grate to prevent potatoes from turning dark. Beat eggs well and add sugar gradually. Add cinnamon and almonds and mix well with potatoes. Dot generously with butter and bake in a 300 degree oven for two hours. Just before serving, pour the whiskey or rum over the pudding. Delicious with turkey. May be served without whiskey or rum.
