Ingredients

• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
• 2 cups peeled and finely shredded yam
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon salt

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 2

Cream butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Stir into creamed mixture until blended. Fold in yam. Spread batter evenly in the greased baking dish.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center, comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Mix together confectioners' sugar, butter and milk until smooth. Spread over brownies while still warm. They will absorb some of the glaze. Serve.
