Sweet Potato Casserole with Marshmallows and Streusel

Mashed sweet potato casserole topped with toasted marshmallows and a brown sugar-cinnamon-pecan streusel. The perfect side dish for Thanksgiving or any other holiday celebration.

Ingredients

  • 3 to 3- 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes*

    peeled and chopped into large chunks, see note

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup milk or half and half
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • salt
    to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

    softened

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour

    for a sturdier streusel add and additional heaping tablespoon of flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 -3 cups mini marshmallows

    or more, if you'd like

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 2 or 2 1/2 quart casserole dish (preferably a rectangle or oval so there's a decent surface area for the topping; I use an 8x11) and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt (I use a fork or rubber spatula to stir and mash the mixture), then mix in pecans.
