Sweet Potato Mallow image

A traditional sweet potato casserole...loved by all...especially with the sweet marshmallow topping! (from a Betty Crocker recipe)

Provided by Cherie Hammond

Categories     Potatoes

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb sweet potatoes or yams (about 3 medium)
1/2 c sour cream
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground mace (or nutmeg)
3/4 c miniature marshmallows

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare and cook sweet potatoes...heat enough salted water to cover potates to boiling. Add potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling again. Cook until tender, 30 to 35 minutes; drain. Rinse off in cool water and slip off skins.
  • 2. Beat cooked sweet potatoes, sour cream, egg yolk, salt and mace in mixer bowl on medium speed until smooth.
  • 3. Pour into buttered 1 quart casserole; top with marshmallows.
  • 4. Cook uncovered in 350 degree oven until marshmallows are puffed and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serves 4...so I usually double.
  • 5. Hints...can use 1 can (17 ounces) vacuum-packed sweet potatoes as substitute for fresh. To make earlier in day, put into crock pot and keep on warm. You can either then put into a baking dish and bake until marshmallows are puffed and brown, or just serve with marshmallows on top. Or serve with the nut filling from the Hungarian Nut Roll recipe also posted on the site! Very delicious topping for sweet potatoes!

Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 sticks salted butter (1 cup / 227g), room temperature
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup sweet potato puree
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup egg whites
2 cups sugar
pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsps cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. With the paddle attachment, combine room temperature butter, brown sugar, and sugar in a stand mixer. (you can also use a hand mixer if you do not have a stand mixer) Beat together on medium until sugar and butter are fully incorporated, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, then sweet potato puree, vanilla extract, and . (Mixture may look gritty, however, keep going. Once the flour is added, the batter will become smooth)
  • Add salt, baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Continue to mix until all dry ingredients are fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to mix for another 10-15 seconds.
  • Spray an 8x8 baking pan with nonstick baking spray OR line with parchment paper. Add batter and spread evenly throughout pan. Sprinkle top of batter with brown sugar. Bake for 40 minutes.
  • (if using store bought marshmallow fluff, skip steps 5u00266) While blondies are baking, make the marshmallow fluff. Bring about 1 inch of water to a boil in a sauce pan. In a large bowl, combine egg whites and sugar. Set bowl on top of boiling water and constantly mix together until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Mixture should be thick and globby.
  • Add egg white mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment and mix on high until a fluff forms - it should be glossy and white. Add cream of tartar and vanilla extract and continue to whisk until stiff peaks form. This will take about 8-10 minutes.
  • Once blondies are finished, let them cool completely on a cooling rack. Once blondies they have cooled, lather on the marshmallow fluff. Create swirls and char with a torch!

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, use graham cracker crumbs instead of cookie crumbs.
  • To make the filling more fluffy, whip the egg whites separately until stiff peaks form and then fold them into the filling mixture.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • To make the bars more decadent, top them with a layer of melted chocolate ganache.
  • If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use two 8x8 inch baking pans. Just be sure to reduce the baking time by 5-10 minutes.
  • These bars can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato mallow bars are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a creamy sweet potato filling, a fluffy marshmallow topping, and a graham cracker crust. These bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
