These Caramel Coconut Sweet Potato Streusels are the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving table this year. Sweet brown sugar, crunchy pecans, gooey caramel and coconut stuffed in a sweet potato and topped with mini marshmallows.

Ingredients  

  • 12 Medium Sweet Potatoes washed and poked
  • 1/2 cup Kraft Caramel Bits
  • 1/2 cup Baker's Shredded Coconut
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp Butter melted
  • 3-4 cups Mini Jet Puffed Marshmallows

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • After cleaning and poking holes in the sweet potatoes, place them in a casserole dish and make for 45-55 minutes until cooked through.
  • Remove from oven and slice length wise.
  • Combine caramel bits, coconut, brown sugar, pecans, cinnamon, and butter in a medium bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Gently spread apart the sides of the potato just enough to spoon in the filling mixture, making sure to press it down in.
  • Top with mini marshmallows, this can be a balancing act, so be gentle.
  • Turn the broiler on low and place stuffed sweet potatoes back in the oven.
  • You want to watch them and pull them out just as the marshmallows reach desired color, it took about two minutes for me to get the color in the photos.
  • Do not leave unattended!
  • Remove from oven and dive in!
