TWICE BAKED SWEET POTATOES WITH MINI MARSHMALLOWS



Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes With Mini Marshmallows image

I found this in an article by columnist Pam Anderson in USA Weekend (Nov. 14-16, 2003). I made it for Thanksgiving dinner at my mother's house. Since I have have a fairly large family, I decided to double the recipe. Everyone loved it! I will definitely be making this again. It's not complicated and makes a wonderful alternative to ordinary baked potatoes or mashed potatoes. And it has the rare quality of being better the next day! So now you've got something with a bit of zip to go with all of that left-over turkey!

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 medium sweet potatoes, pricked with a fork (about 2 lbs)
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup mini marshmallows, garnish

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to low position and heat oven to 400°F.
  • Place potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
  • Bake until fork tender, about 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly.
  • Handling the potatoes with a potholder, slice each in half lengthwise and scoop potato flesh into a blender or food processor-- for an especially silky texture, use the blender-- leaving a 1/4-inch border of flesh to support the potato skin.
  • Puree scooped-out flesh, along with salt and pepper, until smooth.
  • With machine motor running, gradually add both milks through feeder tube.
  • Stop machine, add butter, then process until potatoes are silky smooth.
  • (Puree and potato shells can be cooled, then refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 2 days. Return to room temperature before proceeding.) Spoon puree back into each shell.
  • Just before baking, press marshmallows into potatoes.
  • Bake at 400°F until potatoes are hot and marshmallows are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

These individual sweet potatoes are great for Thanksgiving, or any time of year. I browned the butter to add a nutty flavor, plus added some cayenne pepper for a kick.

CREAMY TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Creamy Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes image

I like to make these twice-baked sweet potatoes because they can be prepared ahead of time. With the addition of cream cheese, they are very creamy and not overly sweet. It is so easy to increase the quantity to any number. -Linda Call, Falun, Kansas
