SWEET POTATO POUND CAKE WITH MARSHMALLOW FROSTING



Sweet Potato Pound Cake with Marshmallow Frosting image

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 PIE MARSHMALLOW CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY



Sweet Potato Pie Marshmallow Cupcakes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: unsalted butter, graham cracker, brown sugar, rolled oats, lightly packed brown sugar, large egg, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, mashed sweet potato, all purpose flour, baking soda, kosher salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, milk, unsalted butter, powdered sugar, milk, Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows

Provided by KraftHeinz

Categories     Desserts

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ cup graham cracker
½ tablespoon brown sugar
¼ cup rolled oats
1 ⅓ cups lightly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
6 oz mashed sweet potato
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup milk
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
4 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
10 oz Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners.
  • Make the graham cracker crumble: In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham crackers, brown sugar, and oats until well combined.
  • Make the cupcakes: In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar and egg with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until combined and smooth, 3-4 minutes.
  • Mix in the vanilla and butter, then the sweet potato, until smooth.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and beat to incorporate, then add the milk and mix until well combined.
  • Scoop a heaping ¼ cup of batter into each muffin cup, then sprinkle the tops with 1 heaping teaspoon each of graham cracker crumble.
  • Bake the cupcakes for 15-17 minutes, or until cooked through and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • While the cupcakes are baking and cooling, make the toasted marshmallow frosting: Add the butter to a large bowl. While whipping continuously with an electric hand mixer on medium-low speed, gradually add the powdered sugar, then the milk, until smooth.
  • Turn the oven to a high broil. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Arrange the Kraft® Jet-Puffed Marshmallows in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Broil, watching carefully, for 60-90 seconds, until the marshmallows are deeply browned on top.
  • Remove the toasted marshmallows from the oven and immediately fold into the frosting. Let cool completely. If the frosting is still too soft to hold its shape once cooled, place in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours, until firm. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large round piping tip.
  • Gently insert the tip of the piping bag through the top of a cupcake into the center and pipe about 1 tablespoon of frosting inside. Then, frost the top of the cupcake and sprinkle with more graham cracker crumble. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a moist and flavorful pound cake, use sweet potatoes that are fully ripe and have a deep orange color.
  • Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl before adding them to the wet ingredients. This will help to ensure that they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that it bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato pound cake with marshmallow frosting is a moist, flavorful, and delicious cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
