This soufflé tasted just like my grandmother’s sweet potato pie! So yummy and not too sweet! I will make again
I made this today only to discover 1/2 way through that it would not fit in my 8 cup blender. The blender had more or less done it’s job on the potatoes, so I finished it in my stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Fingers crossed!
Amazing recipe, everyone loved it. I substituted butternut squash for part of the sweet potato and it was delicious. I’ll be making this regularly.
Always a hit! I use 1 each of white and brown sugar instead. Top with marshmallows and more brown sugar towards the end of baking. Even I can’t mess this one up!
Easy to make and a hit at Thanksgiving dinner! I used 2 cups of sugar instead of 3 cups. My dad is diabetic so I will be trying this recipe with his sugar substitute next time. Definitely a favorite.
Has this recipe been changed? I’ve been making this one for years and had it saved to my Pinterest board. I don’t remember the addition of the self-rising flour. I also don’t see the marshmallows mentioned anywhere…
made this recipe this morning, and currently waiting on it to finish up baking…. I followed it directly, but for some reason it looks like a cake ♀️ … I’m so confused.. are all 6 eggs really necessary?? I did use 2.5cups of dark brown sugar and a 1/2c of regular sugar. taste tested before baking and it tasted fine. will be putting marshmallows on top since I have a nut allergy.
stay tuned.

I’ve made this recipe many times over, and turns out perfect every time. I to cut back the sugar to 2cups & it’s still sweet enough.
Excellent. Really turned out well and easy to make. I also reduced the sugar to 2.5. Could have cut it down further and it would’ve still been sweet enough.
I was using the recipe to rehabilitate mashed sweet potatoes and it came out perfectly! Runny in the center, but that’s how I like it. I also cut down the sugar to about 2.5 cups.
