So creamy with the marshmallows starting to melt into it!
I used a slow cooker for this recipe, mainly because it’s so easy! I can put it in the crockpot and move on to my other cooking for the day. It also frees up the oven for other side dishes or the main meal.

Serving this directly from the slow cooker keeps it warm and delicious all the way through dinner.
With dark brown sugar and the addition of the evaporated milk, you get a deliciously sweeter souffle. Â This crockpot recipe is a staple for Thanksgiving and Christmas in our house. And once you try it, I’m sure it will be in yours!

My grandmother always added a dose of bourbon to her sweet potatoes! The alcohol would burn out but the aroma and taste were great!
