01
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan. In a medium bowl, combine the graham crackers, cinnamon, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to create your crust. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, until it starts to turn golden.

Step 2
While the crust is baking, grab a large bowl and mix together the cream cheese, sweet potatoes, 1/4 cup brown sugar, light cream, eggs, and vanilla until everything is smooth and well combined. Once the crust is ready, pour this filling over it.

Step 3
Bake the pie for about an hour. During the last 10 minutes, sprinkle marshmallows on top so they can melt and get all gooey. When it's done, let it cool a bit before slicing and serving.
