Hello friends of this beautiful community where very tasty recipes are shared that we can all make at home. Today I am going to share with you a recipe for sweet cream to combine with cookies and enjoy it in snacks.

It is always nice to enjoy a snack with something we like. In these times of economic crisis that we are experiencing, it is necessary for us to be very creative to feed ourselves with what we have on hand but that we can really enjoy, not just eat out of necessity.

Taking advantage of the fact that we had a small package of slightly salty cookies at home, I thought that it would be more pleasant to eat them with some kind of sweet cream, I looked at what I had in the dispenser: sweet potato and pumpkin and I immediately started to prepare a cream with these two vegetables. At home we really like ¨boniatillo¨, which is a sweet sweet potato puree and it occurred to me to combine it with pumpkin to give it a prettier color and of course it is more nutritious because we add the nutrients that pumpkin provides us. I also preferred to use brown sugar because it is healthier than refined sugar, my Venezuelan friends can substitute it with panela.

It is very easy to prepare and with few ingredients that are easy to find. Below I present the recipe. The weight in grams of the vegetables is approximate, you can modify it to your liking, I preferred that the amount of pumpkin be half of the sweet potato.

Step by Step:

Step 1. We wash the sweet potato and pumpkin, peel them and cut them into small portions.
Step 2. We place these portions in a saucepan, cover them with water and add a pinch of salt. We put it on the heat for 10-15 minutes until both are soft. Let cool.

Step 3. We are going to prepare a syrup while the vegetables are cooking. We put a cup of brown sugar and half a cup of water in another saucepan, put it on the heat until the sugar dissolves. Once finished, it is left to cool.

Step 4. Beat the cooked vegetables with a little of the cooking water, just enough so that it can be beaten.
