Recipe Notes

Icing Use Note:  The pudding icing must be refrigerated for at least 4-hours to allow the spread to thicken.  DO NOT spread onto cake prior to recommended chilling time. Sweet Potato:  I always have baked sweet potatoes on hand in the fridge because I bulk cook my starches.  This allows for this recipe to come together quickly.  Oven Method:  Bake sweet potatoes in oven on 400F for at least 1 hour or until fork tender.  Instant Pot Method:  Steam sweet potatoes in Instant Pot for 30 minutes using the “natural release” to release the steam.
