Notes
See post for make ahead tips.
To bake sweet potatoes: Pierce potatoes several times. Place on a foil lined baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees F (204 degrees C) for 1- 1 1/2 hours or until they are soft when you squeeze them. Slice open the potato to let steam escape and let cool slightly before scooping out the pulp.
Can also top with mini marshmallows instead of streusel or both. Bake as directed.
