*Boil the sweet potato or steam for 20 minutes and then mash. I did the latter and was very pleased with the quick results!

Hi Melinda, I\’ve never kept them around longer than a few days haha! I would store them in the fridge, sealed once cooled. I would freeze the balance after about 4 days. Hope that helps and I hope you enjoy!!
