My mother-in-law worked for many years at See’s candy, so the store holds a special place in our hearts. Before she passed away, she taught me her trick to make Thanksgiving sweet potatoes extra special. It’s now a staple that I make every year and the whole family looks forward to it. The secret is instead of regular marshmallows on top, use See’s Scotch Kisses…caramel covered marshmallows!

Add the sugar, Triple Sec, whipping cream, egg and butter and beat until creamy. Taste and adjust to your liking. Put potato mixture into a 9x13 baking dish and place in the oven for 20 minutes.
