THE BEST SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE
We opted for a nutty crumb topping over marshmallows to create a pleasantly crunchy contrast to the creamy and soft mashed sweet potatoes. The filling gets a pumpkin pie-like treatment, with brown sugar and vanilla for a deep caramel flavor and butter and eggs for richness. This recipe is bound to become a holiday staple.

GRILLED SWEET POTATOES
I don't really like the traditional sweet potato casserole, but my son loves sweet potatoes, so I try to come up with different ways to cook them. This spring I tried grilling them. These are now a favorite of mine and my sons.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE
This take on the classic Thanksgiving side has the right amount of sweetness and irresistible buttery flavor, not to mention the right balance of creamy and crunchy. Crushed cornflakes make the topping extra crisp, but you can skip them if you want. The two cups of mini marshmallows called for may not cover your entire casserole, allowing a little of that sweet potato filling to peek out, but feel free to use more marshmallows to cover it all the way. With all its flavors and textures combined, this quintessential holiday dish will have everyone coming back for more.

Steps:
- Prepare the filling: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on the baking sheet. Bake until soft, about 1 hour; let cool.
- When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them using a knife, then add the flesh to a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment) and mash with a potato masher or fork.
- Add the 1/2 cup butter, eggs, condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt to the bowl. Combine well with a hand mixer or a stand mixer on medium speed. Add the mixture to the prepared baking dish and, using a spatula, smooth out the top.
- Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, stir together the pecans, cornflakes (if using), brown sugar, flour and butter until thoroughly combined. Spoon the topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
- Bake the casserole until slightly browned, about 35 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven and add the marshmallows in an even layer. Return to the oven and bake until marshmallows are toasty and melted, about 5 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
- Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can do this by baking them, microwaving them, or boiling them. Once they are tender, let them cool slightly before handling them.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the sweet potatoes into cubes: This will help you get clean, even cuts.
- Don't overcrowd the grill: Make sure to leave enough space between the sweet potato cubes so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the sweet potatoes over medium-high heat: This will help them get a nice caramelized crust.
- Flip the sweet potatoes halfway through cooking: This will help them cook evenly.
- Serve the sweet potatoes immediately: They are best when they are hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Grilled sweet potato casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes, and it can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it sweet or savory, this casserole is sure to please everyone at the table.
