Danielle Christy with Savor the Kitchen says growing up Irish, the only potatoes she ate were russet. But a few years ago she says she discovered sweet potatoes, and now they're a staple in her kitchen.

With a soft and creamy center and a nutty crumble topping, Danielle says twice baked sweet potatoes are perfect for snacking, side dish or even a savory-ish dessert.
