Sweet Potato Croquettes Recipe


Sweet Potato Croquettes Recipe
These sweet potato croquettes were my grandmother's answer to sweet potato casserole at Thanksgiving. These are crunchy and delightful and then you get to the inside and they're gooey with this big hole where a marshmallow used to be! Really good!
