- Enough vegetable oil to rub the potatoes
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream

- 2 teaspoons bottled horseradish, drained (get that out of a box!)
- Salt and ground Black Pepper to taste
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325F
- Rub the skins of the potatoes with the vegetable oil
- Prick holes into the potatoes with a fork (so they won’t explode)
- Place the potatoes on a cookie sheet; then place the cookie sheet on the lowest rack in the oven.
- Bake the potatoes for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until they are easily pierced by a sharp knife.
- Test the sweet potatoes after one hour
- When the potatoes are finished cooking let them cool until you can easily handle them.
- Cut all the potatoes lengthwise in half
- Scoop the pulp from the white potatoes into a large bowl.
- Mash the pulp briefly.
- Now scoop the flesh from the sweet potatoes into the same bowl.
- Set the bowl aside.
- In a one quart saucepan bring the cream and chicken broth to a boil; remove from heat.
- Use an electric mixer set to medium speed, slowly beat cream mixture into reserved potatoes until they are smooth and fluffy.
- Beat in horseradish, salt and pepper.
