3 1/2 lb Sweet potatoes (plain canned
-or fresh)
1 lb Tart cherries (1 can);
-drained
1 tb Butter
2/3 c Brown sugar; firmly packed
1/4 c Granulated sugar
1 1/2 ts Salt
1 c Water
4 tb Butter
1/2 c Orange juice
1/2 lb Regular marshmallows
Try this the next time you make Sweet Potatoes instead of Potatoes.
If using raw sweet potatoes, pare and cut into slices 1/2 to 3/4"
thick. Place in a saucepan and add 1 cup of water and cook until
tender. If using canned, drain.
Using 1 tb of butter, grease a 9x13x2" baking pan and add the sweet
potatoes and cherries.
Combine the remaining ingredients except the marshmallows in a
saucepan and cook until you have a thin syrup. Pour the syrup over
the sweet potatoes and cherries. Bake in a 350°F oven for
30 minutes or until the syrup is thick. Just before serving top
with the marshmallows and return to the oven to brown.
