SWEET POTATO (YAM) CASSEROLE WITH MARSHMALLOWS
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.

- Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased casserole dish and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, bring sweet potato dish to room temperature, and bake (covered with a clear lid) for 35 to 45 minutes.
- In the last 5 minute of baking, spread an even layer of marshmallows over top of the casserole.
- WATCH CAREFULLY! Broil (uncovered) until the marshmallows are just turning a darker brown and they are starting to puff.
- SERVE!
