Notes:

• The actual recipe calls for purple sweet potato, but I only have orange sweet potato.  You can use purple sweet potato to have a more striking purple colour for your dessert.
• Since I am letting it cold in the fridge, I serve this dessert in containers and place with a lid to cover.  If serving immediately, serve this dessert in a dessert bowl.

I adapted this recipe from 'mylovelyrecipes.com' with a slight adjustment to suit my cooking preference.
