2. Prepare Potatoes: Peel the sweet potatoes, then place them in a pot of boiling water. Allow them to simmer until they are soft and tender, typically around 35-40 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when a fork easily pierces through the flesh.

3. Mash and Mix: Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, drain them and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Use a potato masher or fork to mash them until smooth and creamy. Next, add in the butter, molasses, and salt, ensuring they are evenly incorporated into the mixture.

4. Combine Ingredients: Beat the mixture well to ensure all the flavors meld together beautifully, creating a luscious and decadent texture.

5. Prepare Casserole: Lightly grease a baking casserole dish with butter to prevent sticking. Transfer the sweet potato mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly.

6. Add Butter: For an extra indulgent touch, dot the top of the sweet potato mixture with slices of butter. This will create a deliciously rich and golden crust as it bakes.

7. Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until the top is beautifully browned and caramelized to perfection.

8. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the Georgian Sweet Potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a drizzle of additional molasses for an extra pop of flavor.
