List of Ingredients




1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
4 eggs
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup 2% milk

MARSHMALLOW FROSTING:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 jar (3-1/2 ounces) marshmallow creme
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract


Recipe



In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in sweet potatoes and vanilla.

Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition.

Transfer to a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar. Beat in marshmallow creme and vanilla. Serve warm cake with a dollop of frosting. Yield: 16 servings.
