Mom's Sweet Potatoes Recipe image

Our family favorite sweet potatoes that make the perfect side dish for your holiday meal.

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 pounds of yellow sweet potatoes (about 5 to 6)
3 tablespoons butter (divided)
1/4 cup karo syrup (divided)
1/2 cup brown sugar (divided)
1 (10 ounce) bag of miniature marshmallows

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Boil sweet potatoes for about 20-30 minutes until fork tender. Let cool.
  • Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with non stick cooking spray.
  • After the sweet potatoes are cool, slice into 1 inch spears. Lay half of them in the pan.
  • Cut up 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter into small pieces and spread all over the sliced sweet potatoes.
  • Then drizzle 1/8 cup of karo syrup over all of the sweet potatoes. Then sprinkle 1/4 cup of brown sugar over the top.
  • Repeat layers - add more sweet potatoes, then top with the rest of the butter, karo syrup, and brown sugar.
  • Cook in oven until heated through and butter is melted. About 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and cover the top with marshmallows. Return to oven cook until marshmallows are golden brown.
  • (This can also be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Cook until heated through and then add marshmallows.)
