And it tastes ... orange!

 Orange You Glad You Made This

1 large sweet potato

3 oranges

1 egg, beaten

a few tablespoons cream

1/2 tsp vanilla

brown sugar

unsalted butter

pecans

mini marshmallows

This is a non-recipe.

I've given you the ingredients.

It's up to you to put it together.

Peel and chop the sweet potato.

Bring to a boil in salted water and cook until tender.

Drain.

Transfer sweet potato to a medium bowl

and add in a tablespoon of unsalted butter.

Mash until butter is melted.

Stir in vanilla and egg,

beating with electric mixer.

 Beat in a tablespoon of cream at a time,

until creamy smooth.

Season to taste with kosher salt.

Halve oranges and scoop out the segments with a serrated spoon.

 I hold the orange over the sweet potato mixture

to collect any juices that drip out.

 Eat the segments.

Scoop the sweet potato mixture into the orange cups.

In a small bowl, mix together:

 about 2 TB softened unsalted butter,

about 2 TB brown sugar,

and some coarsely chopped pecans.

Spoon mixture over filled orange cups

and top with mini marshmallows.

Bake at 325° about 20 minutes 

until heated through 

and marshmallows are melted and browned.

 

 Enjoy!
