Ingredients
  

  • 4 large sweet potatoes cooked
  • ⅔ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • ½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 2 cups shredded coconut sweetened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 bag large marshmallows (1 each per sweet potato bundle)

Instructions
 

  • Note: This recipe uses already cooked sweet potatoes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Peel and mash the cooked sweet potatoes. Stir in the brown sugar, orange juice, zest and nutmeg. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, toss the coconut with the sugar and cinnamon.
  • Press mashed potatoes around each marshmallow, creating an approximately 2 inch diameter ball. Roll the balls in the coconut and cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Watch carefully for the last few minutes of cooking; the expanding marshmallows can cause the potato balls to burst open.
