How to cook deliciously - Candied Sweet Potatoes

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2. Stage

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes and boil until slightly underdone, about 15 minutes; drain and peel when cool enough to handle.

3. Stage

While potatoes are cooling, combine 2 cups marshmallows, margarine, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until marshmallows are melted.

4. Stage

Stir potatoes into marshmallow sauce, mashing about half of the potatoes and breaking the other half into bite-sized chunks. Transfer into the prepared baking dish.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup marshmallows evenly over top and continue to bake until marshmallows are slightly toasted and golden brown, about 5 minutes.
