Ingredients
-
4 pounds yams
-
6 tablespoons dark brown sugar
-
1/2 cup vegetable oil or one stick softened non-dairy margarine
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
1 package marshmallows
Directions
Rinse off potatoes and place in pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Depending on the size of your potatoes, boiling could take anywhere from 30 -45 minutes to be soft enough to mash.
Wait about 10 minutes and then carefully remove potatoes from the hot water with a slotted spoon or spider. Place them on a flat surface so you can peel them. The potatoes will still be hot. Wearing disposable gloves protects your hands a little. The skins should slip off easily into your hands. You can always use a knife to help you if necessary. Place peeled potatoes in the mixing bowl.
Add brown sugar, oil (or margarine) and Vanilla.
Mash well with a masher or a large fork. Let it cool off completely before freezing.
If baking right away, spoon into an oven to table casserole and bake in a 375°F oven for 30 minutes before adding as many marshmallows as you want. Return to oven and bake until marshmallows have browned.
