For those of you who 
like Sweet Potatoes
this recipe is for you.

Mini Sweet Potato Pies

and form each section into a
ball. With a rolling pin, roll

and set aside.
In a blender or food processor,
puree sweet potatoes, milk, egg
whites, sugar, syrup, cinnamon,
nutmeg and cloves until smooth.
Divide mixture into each ramekin
(about 1 cup each).
Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300 and continue
to cook  for 25-30 minutes, or until mixtures reaches 175 degrees.
Top with marshmallows and cook
an additional 5 minutes or until marshmallows are a light brown
color. Cool to room temperature.


Prep time: 15 minutes/Cook time:
40 minutes/Serves 4

This would be great for a small
group or double the recipe for
a larger group.
