Candied Sweet Potatoes

I made this the other night with a left over stuffing and turkey casserole, very tasty...it's like a dessert and side dish rolled into sweet deliciousness ^_^

Ingredients:

3-4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced

1/2 stick of butter, but into separate tbsp

1/3 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 bag of miniature marshmallows

2 tbsp toasted pecans (optional)

pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Coat a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large skillet melt butter with sliced sweet potatoes, coat potatoes with melted butter and cover. Steam potatoes until just cooked through. Add brown sugar and pinch of salt, cook until dissolved and a good syrup is made. Pour sweet potato mixture into prepared dish, sprinkle pecans over top, then top with marshmallows.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until marshmallows are browned.
