Ingredients

Scale

For the Sweet Potato Base:

  • 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs

For the Topping:

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). It’s time to get cozy!

Step 2: Boil Sweet Potatoes

Boil the peeled and cubed sweet potatoes until they’re fork-tender, which will take about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Step 3: Mash the Sweet Potatoes

In a large bowl, mash the sweet potatoes. Stir in granulated sugar, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, salt, and beat in the eggs until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 4: Prepare the Baking Dish

Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly into a greased baking dish.

Step 5: Make the Topping

In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and softened butter. Mix until it forms a crumbly texture. Then, stir in the chopped pecans.

Step 6: Add the Topping

Sprinkle the crumbly topping mixture evenly over the sweet potatoes. For the grand finale, arrange the mini marshmallows on top!

Step 7: Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes. The dish is ready when the marshmallows are golden and fluffy.

Step 8: Cool Before Serving

Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving, ensuring everyone gets a perfect bite!

Notes

Tip 1: Sweet Potato Selection

Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and blemish-free for the best texture.

Tip 2: Extra Marshmallow Height

If you prefer more marshmallows, feel free to add an extra cup for an even sweeter topping.

Tip 3: Pecan Substitutes

If you don’t have pecans, walnuts or almonds can be used as alternatives in the topping.

Tip 4: Storage

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
