Ingredients

4-5 medium/large Sweet potatoes (peeled and chopped into 1/4-inch slices)
2 cups Water
1/2 cup Whole milk
1/2 cup Canned or whipping cream
1/4 tsp Salt
1 cup Granulated sugar
1/2 cup Light brown sugar
1/4 cup Salted butter
1/4 tsp Ground cinnamon
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 recipe Cobbler Biscuit Topping (Master Cookbook Recipe # 466)

Instructions

Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, combine the sliced sweet potatoes with the water and cream. Bring to a boil and cook for 12 minutes.
Sweeten the Filling: Add the salt, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon to the pot. Cover and cook on low to medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until the sugars are completely dissolved.
Finish the Base: Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Transfer the mixture into a greased round baking dish.
Add the Crust: Prepare the Cobbler Biscuit Topping (Master Cookbook Recipe # 466). Roll the dough out and place it carefully over the sweet potato filling.
Final Prep: Cut a few slits into the dough to allow steam to escape and top with small pats of butter.
Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Notes

Tammy's Tips: If you decide to add dumplings (Recipe #162) to this cobbler, make sure to add a little extra water to the pot to ensure there's enough juice for the dumplings to cook through properly!
