First, boil one sweet potato, until it is very soft, about 20 minutes or more. Measure only one cup. Do not add in extra, or it will ruin the recipe.

Boil one sweet potato the night before or in the early morning for at least 20 minutes or more, until the fork can easily slide through.
Remove from the water, and allow cooling before peeling and mashing. The potato should be very soft, and mushy.
Measure one cup, then chill it until you’re ready for this recipe.

Storing and Freezing:

Store this bread at room temperature, covered with clear wrap. It will stay fresh for several days.
If planning to freeze this bread, I would recommend not drizzling the icing on top. It will not hold when frozen and will fall apart and even completely fall off when thawed.
