Note: It's useful to bake sweet potatoes in advance. Place whole sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake at 450 F for 40 to 60 minutes, or until very soft. (Cooking time will depend on the size of the sweet potato.) Store in the fridge until ready to use (up to 6 days) or in the freezer for a couple of months.
