Preparation Time: 0:15
Preheat oven to 450.  

In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter and shortening until well 
blended.  

Add sweet potatoes and enough buttermilk to make a soft dough. 
Lightly knead dough about 20 times.  
On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/2 inch thickness.  
Use a 2 inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.  

Bake on an ungreased baking sheet, 12 to 15 minutes or until biscuits are light 
golden brown.
Serve warm.

Yield: abut 2 dozen biscuits.
