Once the beans are cooked, allow the pressure cooker to cool before opening it.

Blend the cooked beans with some of the whole milk until smooth, adding more milk if it's too thick.

Add 2 cinnamon sticks, evaporated milk, coconut milk, and the cooked sweet potato to the pot.

Stir the mixture and let it simmer, tasting for seasoning.

Add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and any additional spices or ingredients as desired.

Let the mixture cool before serving.
