Ingredients

1 1/2 Cup self-rising flour
2 Teaspoon brown sugar
1/3 Cup shortening
1/2 Cup mashed cooked sweet potatoes
2 Tablespoon milk
1 egg, beaten

Instructions

Combine the flour and brown sugar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add mashed sweet potatoes and milk to the beaten egg. Stir in flour mixture and mix just until all ingredients are moistened. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead 10-12 times or until smooth. Roll dough into a 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with biscuit cutter and place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
