I know what you're thinking - Sweet potato cupcakes? Yuck, how disgusting! Well, set this thought aside, because you really must try these. I was skeptical myself before trying them, but I'm really glad I did as they're absolutely delicious. If you happen to like pumpkin desserts, candied yams, sweet potatoes, or cupcakes, then you'll definitely love these. A moist, tender sweet potato cupcake is topped with a sprinkling of brown sugar which gives a slight crispiness on top, then it's topped off with deliciously browned gooey marshmallows.
