Microwave Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
Instructions
1
Prick the sweet potato several times along each side with a fork, creating multiple entry points to allow steam to escape.
2
Microwave the sweet potato on high for 8 minutes, flipping it halfway through the cooking time to ensure even heating. Continue to cook in short intervals until the potato is tender, typically requiring an additional 8 minutes.
3
Scoop out the soft flesh of the cooked sweet potato and transfer it to a bowl using a spoon. Use a fork to mash the potato, then combine it with softened cream cheese and melted butter.
