Twice Baked Sweet Potato Casserole image

Add this sweet potato casserole to your holiday menu ASAP. Not overly sweet, the flavors are all very balanced in this divine side dish. Just the right amount of sweetness comes from the brown sugar and the marshmallows. We loved the pumpkin spice flavor and the crunch from the pecans sprinkled on top.

4 medium sweet potatoes
1/2 c heavy cream
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 c miniature marshmallows
