EXIE MAE GARNER'S SWEET POTATO PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot of water, cover the pot and bring to a boil. Remove the lid, lower the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and place them in a large bowl. Using a hand-held electric mixer, break up the potatoes. At low speed add the sugar, milk, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, eggs, salt to taste, and combine.
• Butter a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish and pour in the mixture. Smooth the top and bake until the pudding is set, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Cover the top of the pudding with marshmallows, change the oven temperature to the broil setting and cook until the marshmallows are brown and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes.

• Add vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until vegetables are fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and puree with an immersion blender until soup is smooth. Stir in coconut milk and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
