Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap sweet potatoes in foil and bake for about 45 minutes until tender. Let cool, then peel and mash.
  2. In a large bowl, melt cocoa powder and butter together until smooth. Stir in both sugars.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Blend in vanilla extract.
