Directions

• Prepare the sweet potatoes according to the package directions. Chill.
• In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy.
• Add brown sugar, cinnamon and mashed sweet potatoes and continue beating until thoroughly combined.
• If using whipped cream...
• Beat cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Combine butter, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon in a medium skillet and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until the sugar dissolves and is bubbling.
• Add the pecans and stir to coat the pecans. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, continuously stirring. Remove from the heat, and spread the pecans out on prepared baking sheet. Let the pecans cool.
• Spoon marshmallow creme, mashed sweet potatoes, sweet potato cheesecake, and whipped cream into piping bags. You could also use large plastic bags and just cut off a corner.
• Place a cookie into the bottom of a small, glass jar or dish. You may need to break the cookie to make it fit - thats totally okay!
• Pipe in a small amount of marshmallow creme, followed by mashed sweet potatoes, sweet potato cheesecake, and whipped cream. Top with candied pecans and sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
