Marshmallows and Yams?

Question

I've eaten this once at my friend's house 2 years ago on Thanksgiving Day. I need to know:

1.) What is this tasty recipe called?
2.) What are the ingredients?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I'm a guy and this is a quick 'n' easy way to make "Candied Yams."

I cut up the Yams/Sweet potatoes into quarters and boil til tender. The peels will be falling off, so they are easy to remove.

Make the "mixings'" from butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and nuts. I put these into the microwave and 'til it all melts together. How much of these varies for me everytime I make it.

Arrange the yams in a shallow dish and pour the mixings on top. Bake uncover red for 20 minutes, then put the marshmallows on top, turn the heat up to 500 and pull it out when the marshmallows begin to brown.

Answer 2

either cut up some yams or get the canned yams. then add cinnamon, brown sugar and to p with marshmallows. Cook in the over (350 degrees) for about 30 to 40 minutes

Answer 3

Candied yams. The ingredients include cooked yams, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, and marshmallows.

They're a great favorite with my family too!

Bake potatoes 50 minutes. Uncover; bake until potatoes are tender and syrup thickens slightly, basting occasionally, about 20 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Top potatoes with marshmallows and nuts. Return to oven; bake until marshmallows begin to melt and nuts begin to brown, about 3 minutes.
