Rum & Sweet Potato Casserole
December 3rd, 2007 at 7:32 am by Chad (Chad's Blog)
Enough of my friends have asked me for this one I decided to post it. This way I also won’t lose it. It’s a variation of something I found at allrecipes.com and it is quite yummy.
- 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/3 cup Sailor Jerry’s Spiced Navy Rum (seeing a trend yet?)
- 1 cup chopped pecans (Optional but yummy)
Mix sweet potatoes and sugar, mix in eggs, milk, vanilla, butter. Gradually stir in the rum. Mix in the pecans if you like. Pour into a 9×13 greased baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Add some of those jumbo marshmallows on top for the last 5 minutes or so or until they’re browned if you like, that’s what we decided to do next time.

I wonder if our using fresh sweet potatoes made a difference? (I’m glad I didn’t know about the whole cup of sugar when I ate 3 servings.)

Someone asked me this earlier, so I’ll go ahead and post it…
The 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes come from fresh sweet potatoes, but you have to boil them for about an hour. Boil ‘em, skin ‘em, mash ‘em, then they’re ready for use in this recipe.
