Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving without this dish. I've no idea where the recipe came from originally--my grandmother has been making it since long before I was born.

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 2h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 -4 lbs sweet potatoes
butter
salt
milk
mini marshmallows
1/4 lb butter
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
3 -4 ounces Jim Beam bourbon whiskey

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes until done.
  • Skin and mash potatoes while still warm. Add butter and salt to taste. Add milk until the consistency is like creamy mashed potatoes.
  • Put potatoes in a 2 quart casserole dish. Scoop a hollow in the center of the potatoes and create a rim of potatoes around the edge of the pan. Set aside.
  • In a double boiler, cook 1/4 lb butter, brown sugar, egg, and bourbon, stirring constantly, until thickened (1/2-3/4 hour--in my experience it never really thickens).
  • Poor this syrup into the center hollow of the casserole and over the whole top.
  • Line the edges of the casserole with the mini marshmallows.
  • Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until the sauce is a very dark brown.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE



Sweet Potato Casserole image

This take on the classic Thanksgiving side has the right amount of sweetness and irresistible buttery flavor, not to mention the right balance of creamy and crunchy. Crushed cornflakes make the topping extra crisp, but you can skip them if you want. The two cups of mini marshmallows called for may not cover your entire casserole, allowing a little of that sweet potato filling to peek out, but feel free to use more marshmallows to cover it all the way. With all its flavors and textures combined, this quintessential holiday dish will have everyone coming back for more.

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), at room temperature, plus more for greasing the pan
6 large sweet potatoes (about 4 pounds), scrubbed
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup lightly crushed cornflakes (optional)
1/2 packed cup light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsalted butter (1/2 stick), melted
2 cups mini marshmallows, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare the filling: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on the baking sheet. Bake until soft, about 1 hour; let cool.
  • When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them using a knife, then add the flesh to a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment) and mash with a potato masher or fork.
  • Add the 1/2 cup butter, eggs, condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt to the bowl. Combine well with a hand mixer or a stand mixer on medium speed. Add the mixture to the prepared baking dish and, using a spatula, smooth out the top.
  • Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, stir together the pecans, cornflakes (if using), brown sugar, flour and butter until thoroughly combined. Spoon the topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
  • Bake the casserole until slightly browned, about 35 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven and add the marshmallows in an even layer. Return to the oven and bake until marshmallows are toasty and melted, about 5 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose sweet potatoes that are uniform in size so that they cook evenly.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork before baking to help them cook faster.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour.
  • Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling.
  • Use a food processor or potato masher to mash the sweet potatoes until smooth.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the mashed sweet potatoes and mix until well combined.
  • Transfer the sweet potato mixture to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Bake the casserole at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.

Conclusion:

Drunken Sweet Potato Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion.
