Sweet Potato Casserole

Sweet Potato Casserole

(8-10 servings)

Ingredients:

8 medium Sweet Potatoes (6 lb.)

As needed Water (enough to boil potatoes)

1 cup Milk

¼ cup Butter

3 tbsp. Sugar

1 tsp. Vanilla Extract

1 tbsp. Orange Juice

¼ tsp. Ground Cinnamon

¼ tsp. Ground Nutmeg

¼ tsp. Salt

1 pkg. (10.5 oz.) Miniature Marshmallows

Directions:

Bring sweet potatoes and water to a boil and cook 20 to 30 minutes or until tender.  Drain and peel the sweet potatoes and place in a large bowl.  Heat milk, butter, sugar and vanilla in a medium sauce pan over medium heat until the butter melts and the sugar is dissolved (do not let it boil).  Next stir into the mixture the orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.  Beat potatoes on medium speed with an electric mixer until mashed.  Continue beating as you add in the milk mixture until smooth.  In a greased 9x13 baking dish, spoon in half of potato mixture and top with half the marshmallows.  Top the marshmallows with the remaining potatoes and smooth out.  Place in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.  Now top with remaining marshmallows and continue to bake 10 minutes more or until marshmallows are golden.

Note:               You can peel and quarter potatoes before boiling if that works

                        better for you.
