Whole sweet potatoes are baked then stuffed with a little pineapple and a whole marshmallow then baked a little longer.

Cook Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained and reserve liquid
  • 6 marshmallows

Preparation:

Bake sweet potatoes at 450° until soft. Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise and scoop out potato, leaving shell intact. Mash sweet potatoes with butter, salt and milk, along with 1/2 cup crushed pineapple. Add a little more milk or butter if necessary. Fill sweet potato shells. Slice marshmallows in half and top each sweet potato with two halves. Top with a spoonful of crushed pineapple. Put reserved pineapple syrup or juice in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Drizzle each sweet potato with a little of the juice. Place sweet potatoes under broiler and broil until browned.
Serves 4 to 6.
