Ingredients:
| 3 lb. yams, quartered |
| 2 sticks butter, softened |
| 1 1/4 cups brown sugar |
| 3 cups miniature marshmallows |
| Ground cinnamon, to taste |
| Ground nutmeg, to taste |
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400° F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add yams and boil until slightly underdone, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool and peel.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, brown sugar, 2 cups marshmallows, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook, stirring occasionally, until marshmallows are melted.
- Stir yams into marshmallow sauce. While stirring mash about half of the yams, and break the others into bite-sized chunks. Transfer to prepared dish.
