  • 1 large or 2 small white yams cubed

  6. Once the yams are done, drain all the water out. Mash while adding in the butter heavy whipping cream, cayenne pepper, and salt and pepper to taste. Top the vegetable mixture with the mashed yams and spread evenly. Place in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with green onion / chives.
