  4. This is just simply wonderful. We love sweet potatoes and this recipe suits us just fine. Thanks for the great recipe.
     
  5. What a delicious recipe! I cheated just a bit by using a large can of sweet potatoes, but otherwise followed the rest of the ingredients as written. After combining all the sweet potato ingredients, I let it cook until the marshmallows had melted. The flavor was outstanding and the topping was a bonus! My family really enjoyed this dish. Thanks for sharing it!

I was one of the original members of Recipezaar that was truly a community of individuals that enjoyed each other in forums and chat rooms. I've been a member of this site since 2003. Made some tremendous friends that I still think of often. I'll continue coming here because my recipes are here and so many more that I tried over the years as a member. It's just a tad boring now and just another recipe site like all the rest. Sad.
