Recipe Instructions:

Ingredients
6 tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature, divided, plus more for dish
6 sweet potatoes (4 pounds)
1/4 c. bourbon or whiskey
4 tbsp. brown sugar
Kosher salt
1 c. pecans, chopped
3/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly butter a 2-quart baking dish. Roast potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet until a knife easily inserts into centers, 1 hour. Cool enough to handle, then remove and discard skins. Coarsely chop potatoes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
Step 2
Mash together potatoes, bourbon, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl. Season with salt. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Combine pecans, cinnamon, remaining 4 tablespoons butter, and 3 tablespoons sugar in a second bowl. Sprinkle over potatoes.
Step 3
Bake until bubbly and warmed through, 30 to 35 minutes.
