Steps:
- 1. Cook sweet potatoes in oven or in microwave, and let cool. Peel. Mash well, and add butter, brown sugar, spices. Make sure it is well blended. Add chopped pecans. Stir in the evaporated milk well. If you would like this variation, Jazz up the casserole by adding 1 1/2 ounces of your favorite Bourbon for a Southern flavor, or maybe some Brandy or even some Butterscotch Schnapps. Just blend it in well...
- 2. Spray a Pyrex or Corningware dish with nonstick spray. Pour sweet potato mixture into dish and place in preheated oven (350 degrees). Bake uncovered 45 minutes.
- 3. Remove from oven and pour on top the miniature marshmallows if desired. Bake an additional 15 minutes. Total cooking time should be about an hour. (Don't remove from the oven if not using marshmallows.) Let set about 20 minutes before serving.
- 4. **Just a note... I use French Vanilla flavored marshmallows and it tastes wonderful!
Tips:
- Use a potato ricer to achieve a light and fluffy texture for your mashed sweet potatoes.
- If you don't have a potato ricer, mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
- For a sweeter casserole, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
- Add a pinch of salt to balance out the sweetness of the casserole.
- Top the casserole with a pecan crumble or a streusel topping for extra crunch and flavor.
- Bake the casserole until the top is golden brown and the center is bubbly.
- Let the casserole cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
