Ingredients
- 3 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt divided
Topping:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans
- 1/3 cup chopped macadamia nuts
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Peel, wash, and cut sweet potatoes into 1⁄8-inch-thick slices, using a mandoline or a knife.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the sweet potato slices, and cook just until slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and spread the potato slices in a single layer on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Pat dry and let them stand until cool and dry, about 20-30 minutes.
- After that, arrange the slices, vertically, in a lightly greased 13-9inch baking dish.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add cream and bring it to a simmer. Whisk in the black pepper, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and salt. Cook, stirring, until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until ready to bake, for up to 1 day, or make the topping and bake immediately.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Stir together the topping ingredients in a medium bowl, except marshmallows, and set aside.
- Bake, the prepared casserole covered with foil, for 45 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle the topping mixture evenly. Return to oven, and bake for 15 more minutes.
- Add mini marshmallows on top, and broil until the topping is golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving the dish.
