Add 1 cup of sugar to pot of boiling water.
Cut yams and sweet pototoes into sections and add to boiling water. Leave skins on. Boil until potatoes are cooked and soft.
Drain potatoes and peel skins off. They will be hot so a fork to pull off skins.
Put potatoes back into pot. Turn off heat. Mash the potatoes with a masher and add a stick of butter. A dash of salt is o.k. if you want. Mash the potatoes until butter is melted and all the ingredients are lumpy but mashed.
Take out a mixer and start mixing the ingredients. While mixing add the marshmallow fluff. Mix until potatoes are fluffy. It will make like a potato type mousse. Add more butter if you want. Also mix in brown sugar about 1/2 cup. Set aside
In a pan melt a stick or two of butter and add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Cook until it makes like are very hot carmally consistency. Turn off heat. Add granola. Mix well, until all granola is covered with mixture.
Put potatoes in a casserole dish. Spread granola mixture on top and bake for about 10 minute in oven at about 350 degrees. Be careful if the granola topping gets to heavy it will sink into potatoes. If this happens it's ok beca it still tastes good, it just doesn't look as pretty. Enjoy! P.S. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top of the casserole when you remove it from oven.
I made this up myself on Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. I couldn't decide if I wanted sweet potatoes or jams, so I found a way to both. It was a good combo.
