1 1/3 lbs golden sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
5 None medium eggs
2 1/3 cups sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 cups sunflower oil
1/3 g cocoa powder
5 oz sour cream
5 tbsp lowfat milk
None None powdered sugar, for dusting

1
Cook the sweet potato in boiling salted water for 15-20 mins until tender. Drain, put back in the pan and mash with a potato masher. Push through a sieve to make it smooth. Measure out 1 1/2 cups of puree, and save any extra for another use.
2
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Whisk the eggs, sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt in a large bowl using an electric mixer, until thick and creamy and the beaters leave a trail. Stir in the sweet potato puree then sift in the flour and baking powder, pour in the oil and mix it in quickly.
3
Spoon half the mixture into another bowl. Sift in the cocoa, add the sour cream and milk and stir until well mixed. Spoon both mixtures in alternate layers in a greased and floured 10 cup ring pan.
4
Bake for 60-70 mins. Take out and leave to cool in the pan for about 15 mins. Remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Put on a plate and dust with powdered sugar for serving.
