Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Prick each sweet potato with a fork a few times. Wrap each potato in tin foil and
place on a foil lined baking sheet.
Bake until tender, about 1 – 1 ¼ hours.
Remove sweet potatoes from oven and let cool slightly. Halve sweet potatoes and scoop out flesh into a large bowl. Add melted butter, cream, crumbled goat cheese and salt. Mash until smooth and season to taste with pepper.
Note: if you’re a goat cheese lover like me, try crumbling additional goat cheese on top of the mashed sweet potatoes before serving.
