Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Drain the yams.
  3. In a shallow baking dish mash one can of yams and leave the other can of yams in pieces (This is more of a personal preferance, you can leave both cans in pieces if you wish).
  4. Pour orange juice over the yams.
  5. Sprinkle on brown sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Dot with butter or margarine.
  7. Top the yams with marshmallows.
  8. Bake 30 minutes or until marshmallows have melted.
  9. Be sure to watch the yams the last 5 minutes because the marshmellows can burn.
