Servings: 8 servings

INGREDIENTS

4 lbs. red-skinned sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2/3 cup golden brown sugar, packed
5 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 pinch ground ginger
2 cups miniature marshmallows

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange potatoes in a 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Combine sugar, butter, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and ginger in heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Pour over potatoes; toss to coat. Cover dish tightly with foil. Bake potatoes 50 minutes. Uncover; bake until potatoes are tender and syrup thickens slightly, basting occasionally, about 20 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Top potatoes with marshmallows and nuts. Return to oven; bake until marshmallows begin to melt and nuts begin to brown, about 3 minutes.
