Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 pounds sweet potatoes, (about 5 medium)
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, (softened)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 (10-ounce) bag mini marshmallows

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake sweet potatoes for 1 hour or until tender. (Sweet potatoes sometimes ooze and make a mess in the oven. I cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean up and place the sweet potatoes on it.)
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
  • Let sweet potatoes cool some and then peel the skin off. Place peeled sweet potatoes in a mixing bowl.
  • Add brown sugar, butter, egg, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Transfer sweet potato mixture to a greased 11x7-inch baking dish.
  • Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle marshmallows on top. Return to oven for 10 minutes.
