I tried 4 diff recipes, this one came in 2nd. Though it made the potatoes very creamy, I still felt the weight of the cream cheese with an already dense potatoe was a bit too much but if I didn't have my winning ingredient I would substitute easily.

Oh. My. GOSH! Shut the front door, these are GREAT! I followed the advice about skipping the oil and foil and ended up just doing it as a casserole because it was SO much easier (I think the submitter posted that at some point if I remember reading it correctly), and it was so rich and creamy! I completely disagree with the people saying it's too sweet. I guess everyone's tastes are different. It was a great blend of sweet & savory. I loved the cracked black pepper in mine, and I think all the ingredients went well together, and you still got a great sweet potato flavor! This will be on our menu regularly. In fact, I can see my self just making one potato at a time, any time I feel like it. YUM! Other restaurants need to adopt this recipe instead of their traditional sweet potato with butter and brown sugar or butter and cinnamon and sugar. These are SLAP YOUR MOMMA GOOD!!

This was my first time making twice baked sweet potatoes and this looked like as good a recipe as any, especially b/c of the reviews... but i didn't really like these -- they are really sweet/rich and have more of a dessert-like feel. If I were to make these again, I would cut down the amount of cream cheese, probably by half. I would up the amount of spices. I also agree with many of the other reviews that you should not use the oil or foil.

These were very yummy and a nice break from candied yams. My husband who does not eat sweet potatoes ate one and loved it. Everyone wanted the recipe. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent - I made these several times last holiday season! They are a great alternative to the traditional sweet potato casserole! I put mini marshmallows on top and then baked them soooooo Yummy!

This is a great recipe! I made these for a dinner party and they got rave reviews. I added 1/4 tsp of cinnamon and probably will increase to 1/2 tsp next time. I left the foil on the potatoes when serving as the skins were very soft and the potatoes probably would have fallen apart. I only took a thin slice off the top of each potato rather than cutting them in half. I stuffed 6 whole potatoes rather than 12 half potatoes. I will definitely make this recipe often.
