Disclosure: I was compensated by KitchenAid for this post but all opinions expressed here are my own.
I am so excited to share my first KitchenAid recipe which is just in time for the delicious Fall holiday season: Sweet Potato Cupcakes with Toasted Marshmallow!
I just adore this recipe. The cupcakes are incredibly moist and bursting with spices and delicious sweet potato flavor. The topping tastes just like a melted marshmallow and when toasted, you will feel like you just roasted it over an open fire. It is that good! It was even better to make using my new KitchenAid ceramic bowl which is never leaving my stand mixer.
During a time of year where pumpkin truly overshadows everything, it is nice to enjoy sweet potato as well. I had another sweet potato recipe yesterday so this sweet potato kick of mine is seriously going up a notch.
If it is my purpose to bring you sweet potato love as much as possible this Fall, I will do it to the best of my ability. Make sure you head over to KitchenAid’s blog The Kitchenthusiast, and see my new recipe which you will be addicted to as soon as you try it!
And don’t forget to give a little love to the sweet potato. It always comes through for me.

November 8, 2014 at 3:58 amAw man that marshmallow ftinrosg looks so good! I like how it looks so smooth on the top of the cupcake. I’m surprised it isn’t used more often (hmm, maybe the clean-up as you say?). I don’t mind, I’ll make my husband clean it up, hahaha. I can’t wait to try this.

October 24, 2014 at 8:30 pmUm, I’ve only had sweet potato fries…once. Never cupcakes. Do you still love me? 😉 These are amazing, and would be the best for my first foray into sweet potato desserts.

October 24, 2014 at 3:03 amI love sweet potatoes and that alone is a big wow factor for me when I look at these cupcakes, but on top of that, you put toasted marshmallow!!! OMG! This is the best cupcake of this season I’ve seen. It’s two things I like in these cupcakes. I’m very much in love with them. 😀

October 23, 2014 at 11:30 amSweet potato and marshmallow are such a classic combo. This is way better than that old casserole though.
