Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 2 lbs total) Sweet potatoes
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set it aside.
Step 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place them in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Mash the sweet potatoes until smooth. Add 3 tablespoons of the butter, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
Step 4
In a small bowl, beat the eggs lightly, then add them to the sweet potato mixture and mix thoroughly. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Transfer the sweet potato mixture to the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 6
In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Step 7
Gently spread the whipped cream (chantilly) over the sweet potato mixture in an even layer.
Step 8
Dot the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over the top and sprinkle lightly with grated nutmeg.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
