2 1/2 c. milk
4 or 5 med. size yams
2 c. sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
3 eggs
1/4 stick butter
1/2 c. blanched, slivered almonds
1/2 c. whiskey or rum

Put milk into 2 quart casserole. Grate yams, adding to milk as you grate them to prevent potatoes from darkening. (This can be done in blender or food processor.) Beat eggs well and add sugar gradually. Add cinnamon and almonds and mix well with potatoes. Dot generously with butter and bake in 300 degree oven for 20 minutes. Then raise oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake until firm. Just before serving, pour rum or whiskey over pudding. Serves 6.
