Bacon-Wrapped Pineapple Sweet Potatoes

DEAR SOS: I lost my recipe for pineapple yams. Each serving was a separate pineapple ring heaped with the yam mixture and wrapped in bacon. It was quite pretty. I hope you can help.

DEAR CARRIE: This recipe is an oldie, going back to 1967, when it was last printed. It is a pretty dish, typical of a time when showy buffet dishes were the rage.
Hea oven to 425 degrees.
Combine the potatoes and butter and beat until light and fluffy. Top each pineapple slice with potatoes. Wrap a bacon slice around each potato ring and fasten it with toothpicks. Place the rings in a greased shallow baking dish and bake until the bacon is crisp, 35 to 40 minutes.
