- 1/4 cup Orange Juice (freshly squeezed or store‑bought)
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar (packed)

- 2 cups Mini Marshmallows (for topping)

Boil Sweet Potatoes

Peel the Potatoes
Drain the potatoes in a colander. While still warm, use your fingers or a small knife to slip the skins off – they should come off easily.
Time: PT5M
Mash and Flavor
Return the peeled potatoes to the pot or a mixing bowl. Add the butter, orange juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, raisins, and a pinch of salt. Fold gently until just combined; avoid over‑mixing.

Transfer to Baking Dish
Spoon the sweet potato mixture into a greased 9x13‑inch baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
