Sweet Potato And Marshmallow Parfaits Recipes

SWEET POTATO AND MARSHMALLOW PARFAITS

Steps:

• Beat the cream cheese at medium speed in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth. Add the sweet potato puree, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon salt and beat until smooth and combined. Add 1 jar of the marshmallow creme and beat at low speed until the marshmallow starts to soften, then beat at medium speed until incorporated. Scrape the mixture into a pastry bag or large resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate while you make the marshmallow whipped cream.
• Remove the paddle from the stand mixer and switch to a whisk attachment. Combine the heavy cream and vanilla bean seeds in a clean bowl and beat at medium speed until soft peaks form. Add the remaining jar of marshmallow creme and a pinch of salt. Beat at low speed until the marshmallow starts to soften, then beat at medium speed until stiff; do not overbeat. Scrape the mixture into another large resealable bag.
• Cut off just the tips of the pastry bags. Starting with the sweet potato mixture, pipe half the mixture into six 8-ounce glasses. Pipe half the whipped cream mixture on top. Repeat the layering one more time. Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 2 hours before serving. Top with chopped candied ginger, if using, just before serving.

SWEET POTATOES AND MARSHMALLOWS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them lengthwise, then lengthwise again, making long quarters. Cut the quarters into 1-inch pieces. Boil the potatoes until they give a bit when poked with a fork, about 5 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes and arrange in a single layer in a buttered 3-quart baking dish. Pour the syrup on top, making sure it covers the potatoes. Place the lemon slices on top and bake 35 minutes, spooning the syrup over the potatoes twice during that time. The potatoes are done when they are fork-tender.
• Remove from the oven, discard the lemon slices and stir in the pecans. Top with the marshmallows. Turn the oven up to 400 degrees F, place the baking dish back in the oven, and cook until the marshmallows puff and turn brown, about 10 more minutes.
