    Yam Bonbons, This recipe was taken from a local newspaper & tweaked slightly! Although they take a bit of time to make, they are tasty little bites! Preparation time does not include time needed for yams to cool in refrigerator , Made half the recipe – only two of us here today Prepping the bonbons was a terribly messy affair At step #4 they went in the fridge for a full three hours but eight minutes in a 425° oven resulted in an explosion of marshmallow that made plating almost impossible Gave my husband two and I ate off the baking sheet (LOL) Taste as absolutely right on but prep & presentation suffered – at my hands anyway Made for PRMR
