Question 1

Can I roast the sweet potato in the oven instead of using a microwave?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you would rather roast the sweet potato, follow these instructions: Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C). Pierce sweet potato with fork and roast for 35–40 minutes until very tender. Cool slightly, peel, and mash until smooth.

Question 2

Can I use canned sweet potatoes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Plain canned sweet potatoes or canned yams work well. Drain them well, mash until smooth, and measure 1 cup. Avoid sweet potatoes packed in syrup or sweet potato pie filling.

Question 3

Do the brownies taste like sweet potato?

Accepted Answer

No. The sweet potato adds moisture and richness, but the chocolate, marshmallows, and graham cracker crust are the flavors you'll notice most.

Question 4

Can I make these gluten-free?

Accepted Answer

Substitute with a gluten-free flour blend that says 1:1 ratio on the package.

Question 5

Can I use regular-sized marshmallows?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but chop them into fourths for even distribution. This is a sticky task, but if you only have regular marshmallows, it does the job!
