Konnie's Sweet Potatoes

I am a late convert to my father's sweet potatoes, but when I did convert, I dove into the deep end. They've become a staple of our holiday meals as Jen kindly asked my dad how he makes them.  As I tend to be wherever she is for the holidays, I no longer have to be with my side of the family to reap the benefit of this sweet orange dish.

Ingredients:
  1. ~5 Sweet Potatoes
  2. Marshmallows (enough to cover the surface of an 8 x 8 dish) - we prefer the large ones
  3. Butter (generous)
  4. Brown Sugar (to taste) 
  5. Honey (to taste)
Directions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  • Boil the sweet potatoes - will be done when you stick a knife in them
  • Cut the potatoes into large chunks and place in an 8 x 8 dish
  • Three or so large chunks of butter, evenly spaced
  • Drizzle honey and brown sugar over the top
  • Line the top with marshmallows
  • Cook until marshmallows are brown
