A word of warning–once you’ve tried these incredible Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes, no other sweet potatoes will ever quite compare! They’re not only utterly delicious (not to mention semi-addicting) and also a complete show-stopper for your Thanksgiving dinner.
Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
If you’re planning to add these to your Thanksgiving menu, I recommend completing steps 1-4 the day before, then refrigerate, covered, overnight, and complete steps 5 & 6 on Thanksgiving day.
Ingredients:
7 medium sweet potatoes
3/4 c. sour cream
6 tablespoons softened butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
36 large marshmallows, cut in half lengthwise (use kitchen shears)
1 stick cold butter
brown sugar
STEP 1: Bake your sweet potatoes. Preheat oven to 400. Prick sweet potatoes with a fork. Bake until soft, about 1 hour. (tip–place on nonstick foil covered cookie sheet before baking to avoid a drippy mess in your oven!) Let cool slightly on rack.
STEP 2: Cut your sweet potatoes in half and carefully scoop out flesh into a mixing bowl, leaving a thick border for stability.
STEP 3: Prep filling. Mix flesh until smooth, then stir in sour cream, softened butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt & pepper.
STEP 4: Carefully spoon sweet potato mixture into 12 of the shells, dividing the mixture evenly among them. (Note: you can also use a large pastry bag fitted with a large round tip to fill shells). At this point you can cover and refrigerate the potatoes overnight if necessary.
STEP 5: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle potatoes with a little brown sugar, then top with one slice of butter each. Arrange marshmallows on top.
STEP 6: Bake on a foil-covered rimmed baking sheet until hot and marshmallows are golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
