Does anyone have a recipe for sweet potato oatmeal cookies?

I went to the farmer's market last week and the organic sweet potato farmers were selling the most moist and delicious cookies: oatmeal raisin sweet potato. My google-fu has failed me here. Any ideas?

I have a recipe for sweet potato biscuits that is just awesome. After 2 or 3 days (if they last that long) they were still so extra moist. This question caught my eye and if you get a good recipe would you please send me a recipe.





Okay I was thinking about this question and remembered a banana oatmeal cookie recipe that I made last week. Sweet potatoes should work just as well. Here is the recipe modified for sweet potatoes:





3/4 cup shortening


1 cup brown sugar


1/2 cup white sugar


1 egg


1 tsp vanilla


1 cup cooked/cooled mashed sweet potato


1 cup all purpose flour


1 tsp baking soda


1 tsp salt


1 tsp cinnamon


1/2 tsp cloves


1 cup raisens


1 cup choped nuts


2 1/4 cups quick cooking oats





Heat oven to 350. Cream the sugars, shortening, egg, vanilla and sweet potatoes. Stir in remaining ingredients.





Drop by rounded spoon full 1 in apart onto greased baking sheet. Bake 10-12 min. Remove from sheet right away, and cool.





I have only tried the banana version and they were good but very dense cookies so I have changed it a little bit so that they aren't such a big thick cookie. You may have to work with it a bit.
