Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a baking pan.
Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In a separate, large bowl, mix sweet potatoes and butter. Add the flour mixture to the potato mixture and mix to make a soft dough. Then add milk a tablespoon at a time to mixture and continue to cut in.
Turn the dough out onto a floured board and toss lightly until the outside of the dough looks smooth. Roll the dough out to 1/2-inch thick and cut with a biscuit cutter.
Place the biscuits on the pan and coat tops with melted butter.
Bake for about 15 minutes. (Watch your oven: If the biscuits are browning too fast, lower the temperature.)
