Ingredients:

Serving

4 large sweet potatoes
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 tbsp orange juice
1 tsp orange zest
1/2 tsp grated fresh nutmeg
2 cups shredded coconut, sweetened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
marshmallow , 1 large per potato ball

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Bake the potatoes until tender, then peel and mash them.
Stir in the brown sugar, orange juice, zest and nutmeg.
In a separate bowl, toss the coconut with the sugar and cinnamon.
Press mashed potatoes around each marshmallow, creating a 2 to 3-inch diameter ball.
Roll the balls in the coconut mixture. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Watch carefully for the last few minutes of cooking; the expanding marshmallows can cause the potato balls to burst open.
