SWEET POTATO POUND CAKE WITH MARSHMALLOW FROSTING
This tender spice cake has flecks of sweet potatoes and is so moist that you can dig into it without any frosting. I, however, like a little dollop of sweetness. So, I add a bit of frosting directly on each warm slice. The frosting melts into the cake and it is fabulous. -Emma Chapman, Springfield, Missouri

SWEET POTATO CUPCAKES WITH TOASTED MARSHMALLOW FROSTING
These spiced fall cupcakes are a riff on the classic Thanksgiving casserole. These days, I tend to like savory sweet potato dishes with the meal, but marshmallowy cupcakes make a terrific fall dessert! Store any leftover cupcakes in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with cupcake liners.
- Beat butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Blend in vanilla extract and sweet potatoes.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl. Add half the flour to the sweet potato mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Blend in the milk and the remaining flour mixture.
- Scoop batter into prepared cupcake pan and bake in preheated oven until tops spring back when touched lightly with a finger and a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on rack.
- To make frosting, combine white sugar, cream of tartar, a pinch of salt, egg whites, and cold water in a heatproof mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is very hot to the touch and stiff peaks have formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and beat 1 minute more. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and marshmallow creme and beat until combined.
- To frost the cupcakes, fill a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip with frosting; pipe mini marshmallow-shaped dots all over the cupcakes. Alternatively, use a knife and frost them generously with lots of swoops and swirls.
- Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Arrange 3 or 4 cupcakes on a baking sheet and place them in the oven under the broiler. Toast until the frosting has started to brown, about 90 seconds (check every 20 seconds and rearrange the baking sheet, if necessary). Repeat with the remaining cupcakes until all are toasted.

WORLD'S BEST SWEET POTATO POUND CAKE
Sweet potatoes during the holidays are a must in our household. This time I decided to do something different other than a casserole or a pie. I used white sweet potatoes, but any sweet potatoes will do. You can eat this cake plain, topped with whipped cream, or topped with a glaze. Either way, this pound cake is delicious!

SWEET POTATO BUNDT CAKE
Just read the book "Eat Cake" by Jeanne Ray, about a women with her world falling apart, who bakes cakes. I made this cake from the recipes included at the end of the book. This was a big hit. It was pretty simple to make although the directions seem long. In the morning I soaked the raisins in the rum and cooked the sweet potatoes, then put it together in a few minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*. Grease and flour a 10- inch bundt pan. In a small non-reactive bowl, soak the raisins in the rum for at least 30 min or several hours. Meanwhile peel the sweet potatoes, cut them in half and then cut each half into 4-inch slices. Place the slices into a pot of cool salted water, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce to a gentle simmer and cook until the sweet potatoes are very tender. Drain off the water, allow the potatoes to air-dry for a few minutes, then use a pot masher or large fork to roughly mash them. Measure out 2 cups and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl with a whisk or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment beat the eggs a little just to break them up.
- Add the sugar and beat until the mixture is thick and pale, about 2 minute Add the vegetable oil and vanilla, then beat to blend . Drain the raisins and set aside, but add ¼ cup of the rum macerating liquid to the batter. Add the sweet potatoes and mix thoroughly, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl.
- Into a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the flour mixture to the batter in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the dry. Fold in the raisins.
- Pour entire batter in pan.Bake1 hour to 1 hour and 20 min or until wooden skewer comes out clean and cake is just beginning to pull away from sides of pan. Cool the cake in the pan set on a wire rack for 10 min, then invert onto the rack. Set the rack over a baking sheet or large plate to catch the excess glaze. This cake must be glazed while still warm, so it absorbs the maximum syrup.
- For the glaze, combine the brown sugar, butter, and cream in a small, heavy bottomed sauced pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Continue to boil until the mixture thickens somewhat, about 3 minutes, stirring often. Remove the glaze form the heat and stir in the rum. With a long wooden or metal skewer poke holes all over the cake, concentrating on the top. Spoon about half the warm glaze over the cake and let the cake and remaining glaze cool for 10 to 15 minutes, until it has thickened slightly.
- Pour the rest of the glaze over the cake, letting it dribble down the sides, then allow the cake to cool completely before cutting and serving or wrapping and storing.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips or chunks instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just bake the cake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- For a gooey marshmallow topping, use a combination of mini marshmallows and regular marshmallows. The mini marshmallows will melt and create a sticky, gooey topping, while the regular marshmallows will add a bit of texture.
- If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can toast the marshmallows in the oven. Place the marshmallows on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Serve the cake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
This sweet potato bundt cake with toasted marshmallow topper is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness from the sweet potatoes. The marshmallow topping is gooey and sweet, and adds a fun and festive touch to the cake. Whether you're serving it at a party or enjoying it as a special treat, this cake is sure to be a hit.
