My grandmother liked to call this recipe Mallow-Whipt Sweet Potatoes, but I always just refer to it as a Sweet Potato Casserole. Some people prefer not to have marshmallows with their sweet potatoes except in my family we
have to have them. Thanksgiving may be over, but this is still a delicious sweet potato dish and Christmas dinner is right around the corner! You can use fresh sweet potatoes for this dish if you would prefer - about 6 medium size, cut up, cooked, and mashed. Sorry for the awful picture... I was a little occupied cooking Thanksgiving dinner. Anyways, this dish is sweet with a touch of cinnamon so it's perfect for the winter season.
Ingredients
2 17 oz cans sweet potatoes, drained, mashed
2 cups marshmallows
1/4 cup margarine, melted
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, stir together sweet potatoes, 1 cup marshmallows, margarine, orange juice, and cinnamon.
- Spoon into one quart casserole dish. Bake 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle with remaining marshmallows and broil until lightly browned about 1 minutes. Be careful not to burn the marshmallows!
