Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe

Taken from Famous Dave's BBQ
3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 tablespoons frozen tangerine juice concentrate
1 tablespoon Amaretto
1 tablespoon Kahlua
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup toasted pecans
Large marshmallows
Cube sweet potatoes and combine with enough cold water to cover in saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer for 30 minutes or until tender; drain. Mash with a potato masher. Spoon the mashed sweet potatoes into a mixing bowl. Beat until blended. Add brown sugar, butter, tangerine juice concentrate, Amaretto, Kahlua, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. Beat until smooth.

Add the eggs, beating until blended. Stir in the pecans. Spoon the sweet potato mixture into a buttered 2-quart baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Top with marshmallows. Bake until marshmallows are golden brown and slightly melted.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings.
