This is a compilation of a couple of different recipes I found on the web. My husband loves sweet potatoes with LOTS of marshmallows and wanted a casserole like one of his aunts used to make. After a few trials, this was the final incarnation. It is now a Thanksgiving staple for both his and my family's dinners. Ingredients:
1 (40 ounce) can bruce cut yams, drained |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 egg, beaten |
4 tablespoons melted butter |
1 (16 ounce) bag miniature marshmallows |
Directions:
1. Butter 1 quart baking dish.
2. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
3. Mash yams in a large bowl and add brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, egg, and melted butter.
4. Mix well.
5. Place 1/2 mixture in baking dish.
6. Top with a layer of marshmallows, then add remaining mixture.
7. Bake for 30 minutes.
8. Remove from oven and top with remaining marshmallows.
9. Bake for another 10 minutes or until marshmallows are lightly browned.
