Yield: 12 puffs

Ingredients

  • 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
  • 12 large marshmallows
  • 2 cups corn flake crumbs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter or margarine, melted

Instructions

  1. Place sweet potatoes in a heavy 5 to 6 quart saucepan; add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat; simmer until potatoes are very tender, 20 minutes. Immediately drain well; cool slightly.
  2. Mash cooled potatoes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combined mashed sweet potatoes, 1/4 cup butter, salt, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and egg yolks. If mixture is too soft to shape, refrigerate until chilled.
  4. Flatten 1/3 cup sweet potato mixture into a 3 inch circle; place a marshmallow in center. Gather sweet potato mixture around marshmallow to enclose, leaving a small hole at top. Set aside.
  5. Repeat with remaining sweet potato mixture and marshmallows.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine corn flake crumbs with remaining 1/4 cup butter.
  7. Roll puffs in buttered crumbs, turning to coat well.
  8. Place on a baking sheet; freeze until solid. If not baking immediately, place frozen puffs in a plastic freezer container; store up to 2 months.
  9. To bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  10. Bake frozen puffs for 20 minutes; serve hot.
