Then spread in casserole dish (Pam) - sprinkle marshmallows all over top and put in a 350(F) oven until marshmallows are melted and browned.


*This recipe was the way my Nanny (Momma's Momma) made her sweet potato casserole. Now that she's gone, it's still good but never quite the same as her's was:) Like Momma's recipes, her's were never written down - only done by touch, sight and taste:)
