Mom’s Famous Sweet Potato Casserole | George Motz

hello food tubers my name is George Motz
and this is mom’s famous I’m standing
here with one of my favorite moms my
mother-in-law Sally Sally what are you
famous for sweet potato casserole sweet
potato casserole one of the most famous
Thanksgiving dishes ever
where trust we come from well it came
from my mother and it’s extremely casual
easy recipe to do with very few
ingredients look at this I mean there’s
nothing here we have cooked shoe
potatoes or yams there’s heavy cream
there’s sour cream marshmallows and
vanilla ice cream and that’s it right
that’s it my mother would be a little
shocked that we’re using actually real
live yams or sweet potato chips because
she wanted to always make everything as
easy as possible and use canned sweet
potatoes cans your potatoes don’t do it
we’re using yesterday because when I
went to the market they look better and
they were organic they look better than
sweet potatoes so the recipe can be used
with either one either way it’s going to
be delicious
okay I think that you’re actually
sweeter sweet is your these are a bit
sweet up yeah yeah those are actually
sweeter than sweet potatoes they also
come in very funny shapes this cooked
for how long this was these cooked for
about an hour and a half for casual how
many do we have a lot of potato nine to
twelve for a typical casserole size pan
okay let’s cover step with it so we need
to slice the sweet potatoes okay you
stir that were quite hot when they come
out of the oven so be careful then we
just take the skin off your peel the
skillet or just peel it right off and
use a spoon if you want to scoop it out
and put it right in here
honestly I PLAs one okay so what happens
next
so the next thing you do we’re going to
add in some vanilla ice cream I’ve never
heard it I know it’s delicious you’ll
see I’m looking at the recipe card it
actually says you can put vanilla ice
cream milk or sour cream or heavy cream
right so I’m doing a combo you can
experiment you can be as creative as you
like we’re going to turn this on now on
low okay okay it’s okay it happens mom’s
famous so now you’re going to add some
good ads and sour cream sour cream we’re
going to put in let’s say about that
much now a couple of these couple
heaping that should be enough
so now in terms of the cream aspect you
have vanilla ice cream you have heavy
cream and you have sour cream in there
now to the pan here the address there
cool that has a very white coat about it
I just felt my finger okay it’s pretty
heavy
it is heavy there’s a lot of stuff I
looks so good
just make it fairly even you don’t put
the marshmallows on yet we do not this
now goes in the oven at 350 degree oven
at 350
I think it’s ready well not ready we
need to put the marshmallows on top take
it out put the marshmallows on and put
it back in for five minutes but keep an
eye on it because it can burn and you
want to make sure it doesn’t get too
crispy this is a very important part
here because this is the marshmallow
part okay so right very easy now we just
place marshmallows on okay we leave a
little bit of space in between each one
how much I don’t like that maybe a
quarter to half an inch okay
now what happens back in I love the neon
do you okay five minutes five minutes
Wow okay oh it’s beautiful
you
let’s face it I think that’s what we
need to do look at what this looks like
the marshmallows are perfectly toasted
oh it’s almost like a dessert mashed
potatoes and the ultimate Thanksgiving
comfort food there you have it
mom’s famous sweet potato casserole with
marshmallows on top it’s so good
