Sweet taters with a new look. I took a Paula Dean recipe and combined it with Aunt Ruby's tater balls... this is what I came up with.
Ingredients:
4 -5 large sweet potatoes
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons orange zest
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup shredded coconut (sweetened)
1 cup corn flakes (crushed)
1/8 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
8 -10 large marshmallows (one per ball)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. bake potatoes until tender, peel and mash, stir in brown sugar, orange juice,nutmeg & zest.
3. Toss coconut, sugar, cinnamon and cornflakes in a separate bowl.
4. Form a 3-4 ball of potato mixture , roll in coconut/cornflake mix and press marshmallow on top.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
