Steps
Sequence Step
1Preheat oven to 350° F.
2Bake the potatoes until tender, then peel and mash.
3Stir in the brown sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon, vanilla (vanilla butter and nut flavoring is ACTUAL ingredient, but currently not in this database), orange juice, ½ C butter and nutmeg.
4In a separate bowl, toss the pecans with the sugar and 1 tsp. cinnamon.
5Press mashed potatoes around each marshmallow - centering the marshmallow - creating a 3-4 inch diameter ball.
6Roll the balls in the pecan mixture and place on a cookie sheet.
7Bake for 15-20 min. (Watch carefully for the last few minutes of cooking; the expanding marshmallows can cause the potato balls to burst open.)
8Drizzle 1 Tbsp. butter over each ball before you place in the oven OR ½ way thru the cooking, 7-8 min. OR immediately after you take them out of the oven. Your choice.
9You should let the balls rest for a couple of minutes before serving to let the marshmallow cool a bit. Serve hot-warm.
