I didn't have the pound cake mix so I made Flo Breaker's Pound Cake from the Joy of Cooking; and I used leftover candied sweet potatoes instead of plain puree. I subtracted 1 egg and 1/3 of a cup of sugar to compensate for the sweetened potatoes. This cake is amazing; very subtly scented and flavored and the cream cheese frosting is, pardon the expression, the "icing on the cake". Incredible flavor; worth every second of work.

Instead of cooked sweet potato, I added a cup of grated sweet potato as you would do with grated carrots for carrot cake. My son thought it WAS carrot cake until he tasted it and gave his seal of approval. Next, I'll try adding chopped cranberries...
