Comments

If your heart is set on marshmallow topping, you can omit this topping and during the last few minutes of baking, top with miniature marshmallows. You need to watch the marshmallows as they will melt quickly and you want them to just brown and not burn.

At any rate, you need to try this recipe as written at least once as we have served it to people who claim to "hate" sweet potato pie & they loved it! It really tastes more like a dessert.
