These spiced fall cupcakes are a riff on the classic Thanksgiving casserole. These days, I tend to like savory sweet potato dishes with the meal, but marshmallowy cupcakes make a terrific fall dessert! Store any leftover cupcakes in the refrigerator.

Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 21

½ cup butter, room temperature
1 ½ cups brown sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cooked, mashed sweet potatoes
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
½ cup milk, room temperature
⅓ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 pinch salt
2 egg whites
3 tablespoons cold water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup marshmallow creme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with cupcake liners.
  • Beat butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Blend in vanilla extract and sweet potatoes.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl. Add half the flour to the sweet potato mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Blend in the milk and the remaining flour mixture.
  • Scoop batter into prepared cupcake pan and bake in preheated oven until tops spring back when touched lightly with a finger and a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on rack.
  • To make frosting, combine white sugar, cream of tartar, a pinch of salt, egg whites, and cold water in a heatproof mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is very hot to the touch and stiff peaks have formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and beat 1 minute more. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and marshmallow creme and beat until combined.
  • To frost the cupcakes, fill a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip with frosting; pipe mini marshmallow-shaped dots all over the cupcakes. Alternatively, use a knife and frost them generously with lots of swoops and swirls.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Arrange 3 or 4 cupcakes on a baking sheet and place them in the oven under the broiler. Toast until the frosting has started to brown, about 90 seconds (check every 20 seconds and rearrange the baking sheet, if necessary). Repeat with the remaining cupcakes until all are toasted.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h35m

Yield about 36 mini cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium sweet potatoes (about 12 ounces)
Cooking spray
18 marshmallows
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Make the sweet potato puree: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roast the sweet potatoes until very tender, about 1 hour. Let cool, peel, then puree in a food processor until smooth. Set aside 1 cup of the puree for the cupcakes and reserve the remaining puree for another use.
  • Make the cupcakes: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line mini muffin tins with paper liners, and coat the liners and the top of the tin with cooking spray. Halve each marshmallow on the diagonal with kitchen shears; set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cayenne together in a large bowl. Beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and creamy. Add the 1 cup of reserved sweet potato puree, and beat until incorporated (it's OK if the batter curdles). Beat the eggs in 1 at a time. Beat in the vanilla. Adjust the mixer speed to medium-low, and beat in the flour mixture in 3 additions, scraping down the side of the bowl as needed, until just incorporated.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the cups of the prepared muffin tins. Bake until the tops spring back when pressed, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the tins halfway through. Let the muffins cool in the tins for a few minutes, then transfer them to a rack. While the cupcakes are still warm, top each with a marshmallow half, cut-side down. Let the cupcakes cool completely. (They can be cooked and cooled a day ahead and stored at room temperature in an airtight container.)
  • Preheat the broiler. Transfer half the cupcakes to an unlined baking sheet, and broil, rotating the sheet as needed, until the marshmallows are toasted and golden. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes. This can be done up to 2 hours before serving.

SWEET POTATO PIE MARSHMALLOW CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY



Sweet Potato Pie Marshmallow Cupcakes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: unsalted butter, graham cracker, brown sugar, rolled oats, lightly packed brown sugar, large egg, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, mashed sweet potato, all purpose flour, baking soda, kosher salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, milk, unsalted butter, powdered sugar, milk, Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows

Provided by KraftHeinz

Categories     Desserts

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ cup graham cracker
½ tablespoon brown sugar
¼ cup rolled oats
1 ⅓ cups lightly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
6 oz mashed sweet potato
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup milk
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
4 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
10 oz Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners.
  • Make the graham cracker crumble: In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham crackers, brown sugar, and oats until well combined.
  • Make the cupcakes: In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar and egg with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until combined and smooth, 3-4 minutes.
  • Mix in the vanilla and butter, then the sweet potato, until smooth.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and beat to incorporate, then add the milk and mix until well combined.
  • Scoop a heaping ¼ cup of batter into each muffin cup, then sprinkle the tops with 1 heaping teaspoon each of graham cracker crumble.
  • Bake the cupcakes for 15-17 minutes, or until cooked through and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • While the cupcakes are baking and cooling, make the toasted marshmallow frosting: Add the butter to a large bowl. While whipping continuously with an electric hand mixer on medium-low speed, gradually add the powdered sugar, then the milk, until smooth.
  • Turn the oven to a high broil. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Arrange the Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Broil, watching carefully, for 60-90 seconds, until the marshmallows are deeply browned on top.
  • Remove the toasted marshmallows from the oven and immediately fold into the frosting. Let cool completely. If the frosting is still too soft to hold its shape once cooled, place in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours, until firm. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large round piping tip.
  • Gently insert the tip of the piping bag through the top of a cupcake into the center and pipe about 1 tablespoon of frosting inside. Then, frost the top of the cupcake and sprinkle with more graham cracker crumble. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a gooey marshmallow filling, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form before adding the sugar and corn syrup.
  • To prevent the marshmallow filling from becoming grainy, make sure the sugar and corn syrup are completely dissolved before adding the egg whites.
  • For a crispy graham cracker crust, pre-bake the crust before filling it with the marshmallow mixture.
  • To prevent the cupcakes from sticking to the pan, grease the pan with cooking spray or line it with cupcake liners.
  • For even baking, place the cupcakes in the center of the oven.
  • To check if the cupcakes are done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cupcakes are done.
  • For a professional touch, top the cupcakes with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.

Conclusion:

These sweet potato pie marshmallow cupcakes are a delicious and unique treat that are perfect for any occasion. The sweet potato pie filling is rich and creamy, while the marshmallow filling is light and fluffy. The graham cracker crust adds a crispy texture, and the cinnamon sugar topping adds a touch of sweetness. These cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
