HOLIDAY SWEET POTATOES WITH MARSHMALLOW CREAM
These Sweet Potatoes are my Granny's recipe, Clara Walker. What makes them extra special? You run your sweet potatoes through a food mill or fine colander and the potatoes are smooth with no lumps or strings. With the addition of some sugar, butter and vanilla these potato's really are the bomb ! The potato's are so smooth and creamy, almost like pie filling. And I haven't even got to the Marshmallow Cream part ! *This is not my picture but until I make them again this will have to do.
