Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a glass 9- x- 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. In the bowl of a mixer or with an electric hand mixer, beat sweet potatoes on medium-high until they become smooth, about 2 minutes. Add butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon; mix until fully combined. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt; beat on medium high until the mixture is fully homogenous. Pour into prepared baking dish.

Scatter across the surface of the soufflé. Bake until the center of the soufflé is set and does not jiggle when tapped, 45 to 55 minutes.

• Preheat oven to 350°. Scrub potatoes, DO NOT PEEL, rub all over with vegetable oil then with small amount of oil in bottom of the pan. Cover pan with aluminum foil then bake for about 1-2 hours, or until soft all the way through. Potatoes are done peel them and the skins should come right off; (I usually do it with a fork--- BE CAREFUL THEY ARE HOT!!!!!
• After potatoes are peeled, place them in pan you will use or mixing bowl mash well depending on amount of potatoes. I usually use about 1 stick butter, (hot potatoes should melt the butter). Mix that together and add more butter to taste. Add brown sugar, and cinnamon to taste, (start with small amounts--tablespoons) and add to taste (I usually end up using 1/4 cup brown sugar).
• Spread in a 8x12 pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. Layer with small marshmallows.
