For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter.
If your sweet potatoes aren't already sweetened, you may need to adjust the amount of sugar in the recipe to your liking.
The beer adds a subtle depth of flavor, but you can substitute it with milk or buttermilk if preferred.
Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

    I froze my leftover sweet potatoes and made this cake a few weeks later. It was the perfect way to use them up!

    I didn't have beer on hand, so I used buttermilk instead. It still turned out great!
