Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 3 pounds sweet potatoes (peeled and roughly cubed)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup milk (as up to 1 cup for desired consistency)
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • Toasted Pecans for garnish (optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. 
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and boil sweet potatoes until fork tender; about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher until smooth. (Use a hand mixer if you want absolutely smooth with no lumps).
  • Stir in brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and salt until well combined. Add the milk a small amount at a time to reach desired consistency.
  • Spray an 11-inch x 7-inch (medium sized) casserole baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spread sweet potatoes evenly in the prepared casserole dish and top with a layer of the marshmallows.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until marshmallows are golden brown.
  • Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with toasted pecans.
