Ingredients

  • sweet potatoes
  • butter
  • brown sugar
  • chopped pecans
  • mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Using a fork, poke holes in the sweet potatoe(s). Wrap individually in tin foil & place on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour.
  • Let cool until they have cooled enough to handle. Remove the tin foil & split down the middle.
  • In a skillet, melt a couple tablespoons of butter. Throw in some chopped pecans (about 2oz for 4 sweet potatoes) & cook for 3 minutes, stirring often. Mix in a couple tablespoons of brown sugar, and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring. Remove from the heat.
  • Stuff mini marshmallows into the sweet potatoe(s) - really cramming them in - until halfway full. Top with the brown sugar pecans. Finish off with more mini marshmallows, packing them in as well.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes on 350 degrees, or until the top of the marshmallows are lightly browned.
