Baked Sweet Potato Pudding

Ingredients

4 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
3 large eggs, separated
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, divided
1/3 cup packed brown sugar

Directions

~In a large bowl, beat the potatoes, cream, egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon peel and spices until smooth. Fold in 2/3 cup coconut.

~In a large bowl with clean beaters, beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in brown sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
