Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked sweet potato meat,
  • or 1 15.5 oz can Louisiana sweet potatoes
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup of dry butterscotch pudding mix
  • 1/2 cup Gran Marnier
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup toasted pistachios, chopped
 
Method

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease a 10 cup bundt pan. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, nutmeg, baking powder and salt, then set aside. In a separate large mixing bowl, mash sweet potato, leaving only a slight meaty texture. Whisk together sweet potato and eggs. Whisk in warm water, sugar, and oil followed by pudding mix, Gran Marnier and vanilla extract. Incorporate dry ingredients and fold in pistachios. Spoon batter into prepared bundt pan. Bake about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean. Let cake cool in tin for about 20 minutes and invert onto a serving platter or cake stand.

 
Notes:

Super good for Thanksgiving get togethers, right before that "sleepy" turkey feeling takes over.
