Instructions: Scoop out all the orange pulp and squeeze the juice. Save the juice but not the pulp.

Boil potatoes until soft and ready to mash. (We boiled, then peeled.)

Strain potatoes, add butter, and mash. Add juice (we used 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) and liqueur to taste (we used 1 tablespoon).

Mix with electric beater until consistency is of soft mashed potatoes. Add cloves (next time, well leave this out), nutmeg, salt and pepper. You can even add a little brown sugar if it tastes too tart (we used 3/4 cup).

Scoop the mixture into orange cups. Dot the top with a pecan. Orange cups can be made a couple of days early. Just keep then refrigerated. When ready to serve, heat in a baking dish at 325 degrees until warmed.
