8 sweet potatoes, about 4 lbs
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
4 slices bacon
1 egg
2 Tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chipotle chilli pepper (optional)
Preheat oven to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil. Arrange potatoes on 1 baking sheet. Bake until very tender, about 1 hour; let stand until cool enough to handle, 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, place rack on remaining baking sheet. Spread 1/4 cup brown sugar on a plate. Coat both sides of each bacon slice in sugar and arrange bacon slices on rack. Bake until crisp, 15-18 minutes. Remove from rack; cool and chop.
Coat 2-quart baking or souffle dish with cooking spray. Remove potato flesh from skins. On medium speed, beat potatoes, egg, butter, cinnamon, salt, chipotle pepper and remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar until blended; transfer to baking dish. Bake until heated through, 30 minutes. Serve sprinkled with bacon (or mix cooked bacon with mash before cooking).
