Ok, if y’all know me a little but, you know that good food is close to my heart. I find it soothing to go home after a long day and cook a nice meal! In season veggies, good cuts of meat, and basic seasonings is all you need!

I found an amazing Sweet Potato Casserole recipe that I thought would go great with your holiday meal!

Ingredients

  • 3 to 4 large sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed (about 3 cups)
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, or to taste
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup of half and half
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups of mini marshmallows, or praline topping below

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 1-1/2 to 2 quart casserole dish; set aside.

Mash the cooked and cooled sweet potatoes until smooth; add the butter, half the sugar, pinch of salt and all of the half and half, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and vanilla extract; stir well and taste. Add the remaining sugar as needed to taste. Add the eggs and combine well. Pour into the casserole dish. Cover and bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes, until heated through well.

Remove, uncover and spread marshmallows on the top, bake uncovered about 10 minutes longer, or until marshmallows are nicely browned.
