Sweet Potato Balls are a nice twist on a favorite Thanksgiving dish.

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 egg
  • miniature marshmallows
  • 3/4 cup gingersnap cookie crumbs

PREPARATION:

Mash potatoes while they are still warm, add butter salt and pumpkin pie spice. Add egg until combined. Chill until firm; roll them into balls (about golf ball size). Place 2 marshmallows in each one then and form again into a ball. Then roll them in the crumbs. Bake in a 400 degree oven on a lightly greased cookie sheet for 10 to 15 minutes. - Melissa
