Sweet Potato Biscuits (with Orange Butter)

This recipe calls for mashed sweet potatoes. 
Try baking the potatoes, then scoop out to mash it. 
The flavor is much sweeter than boiled, sweet potatoes.

3 Cups mashed sweet potatoes (approximately 2 large potatoes) 
1/2 Cup sugar 
3/4 Cup butter 
4 Cups flour 
1 teaspoon salt 
3 teaspoons baking powder 

In large bowl, mash potatoes, sugar and butter. 

In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. 

Add dry ingredients to potato mixture, mixing well. 
Cover and let stand at room temperature at least 4 hours.

Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. Roll out thick (1 inch) 
on floured board. If dough is too sticky, work in more flour. 

Cut with biscuit cutter. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet 
about 2 inches apart. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
