Recipe for Twice-Baked Sweet Potato Cups with Sour Cream, Chipotle, and Lime

Delicious Twice-Baked Sweet Potato Cups with a Southwestern Flair!

It's important to find straight-sided sweet potatoes for this twice-baked sweet potato recipe, where the cups are made of pieces of sweet potato standing on end. The recipe may seem a little labor intensive if you're preparing a big Thanksgiving dinner, but you can make this earlier in the day and do the final baking part right before you serve them.
