"EDITOR’S NOTE (November 14, 2019): Added mini marshmallows as an optional ingredient (garnish) and new photos. Updated instructions with a lovely serving suggestion. I created this recipe by stuffing Brown Sugar Sweet Potatoes in the center of Jiffy Cornbread Muffins. My hearty muffins combined with mashed sweet potatoes are amazing! Pairs well with Smoky Collard......"
