Jamaican sweet potato pie

Peel and finely grate the sweet potatoes. Add the flour, raisins, sugar, condensed milk, coconut milk, baking powder, and seasonings and mix well. Butter a springform pan, pour in the mixture, and bake for 30 minutes in an oven preheated to 180°C (top/bottom heat). Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter and add the second portion of rum and cognac. Of course, you can increase or decrease the amount of alcohol according to your taste. Pour the glaze over the pre-baked cake and bake for another 30 minutes. When a toothpick inserted into the pan should come out clean, nothing should stick. Since there is no egg in the cake, it will appear slightly wobbly for a while. However, it will set later. Let it sit for at least 12 hours.
