Sweet potato Biscuits

Have a few extra sweet potatoes to use up???? This is my Granddaughters favorite way to have sweet potatoes:

                                                 Sweet Potato Biscuits

2 cups all-purpose flour
4 tsp. baking powder
2 T. Brown sugar
3 T. soft butter
1 cup cooked, mashed and cooled sweet potatoes
2-4 T. Buttermilk
 
combine dry ingredients, cut in butter and sweet potatoes till crumbly. add Buttermilk a little at a time , just till dough comes together, but is not sticky. how much you need will depend on how ‘wet’ the sweet potatoes are.
 
Pat out on a floured board and cut into 8 large or 12 smaller biscuits bake in a greased pan for 25-30 minutes or till just browned.
 
Wonderful warm with butter and sorghum or honey!
But also really good with supper when you want to add another vegetable in a different way. 
 
I think we have enough to make a few batches of biscuits don't you?
