Sweet Potatoes With Amaretto and Macaroons

"This is the most fabulous and delicious sweet potato recipe I have ever made, a refreshing change from the marshmallow or candied dishes. It's perfect with rich holiday meats like turkey, goose, ham and other roasted pork... and it's sooooo easy. I made it for Thanksgiving; but it would be equally wonderful for Christmas, a unique addition to the holiday table!"
