DIRECTIONS
In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In another bowl, mash the sweet potatoes and milk. Add to the crumb mixture just until combined.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Roll to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 425 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Serve warm.

I will definately make these often!These biscuits were very good and my family was glad they didn't actually taste like sweet potatoes. The only thing to indicate the presence of sweet taters was the orange color! I didn't have milk, so I used evaporated milk and that was just fine. My only complaint, and this is NOT the fault of the recipe, is that they are a teeny-tiny-TINY bit chewy. I suspect that's just because of the potaotes.

I made these biscuits for the first time for this Mother's Day (a daunting task considering my grandmother is the master biscuit-maker). I think next time I will add a little sugar and perhaps some cinnamon or nutmeg. I thought the biscuits were a little chewy as well, but I used a tad more milk than the recipe required to get the dough to form and probably kneaded them a bit too much. Other than that, I thought the recipe was pretty good!
