Ingredients
Serves 8–10
6 cups

roasted, sweet potatoes (approximately 5–6 potatoes)

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup melted butter

Directions 
 

Pre-heat oven to:

400° for roasting the sweet potatoes

4. Cool to room temperature.

5. Remove the skins and mash the sweet potatoes in a food processor, electric mixer, or ricer.

6. Place the mashed sweet potatoes, brown sugar, melted butter, orange concentrate, salt, and pepper into a food processor or electric mixer and combine.

7. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.

8. Spread the mixture into a 9x13x2 ovenproof glass baking dish and top with the mini marshmallows. Spread the mixture into a 9x13x2 ovenproof glass baking dish and top with the mini marshmallows.
