Thanksgiving dinner recipe- “Sweet Potato Mallow”(4 servings):

1 lb. sweet potatoes or yams (about 3 medium - or use 16 oz. can)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. mace
3/4 cup miniature marshmallows or cut-up large marshmallows

If using fresh sweet potatoes, prepare and cook: Wash, but do not pare. Heat enough salted water to cover potatoes (1/2 tsp. salt to 1 cup water) to boiling; add potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling; cook 30-35 minutes or until tender. Drain; slip off skins. Leave whole, slice or mash.
Heat oven to 350*. In small mixer bowl, combine sweet potatoes, sour cream, egg yolk, salt and mace; beat on medium speed until smooth.
Pour sweet potato mixture into buttered 1-quart casserole; top with marshmallows. Bake 30 minutes or until marshmallows are puffed and golden brown.
