I would rather have plain mashed than the typical marshmallow topped
ones, but I do eat a bit of that when served (usually only at a holiday
dinner).  I often will order a baked sweet potato when we go out.  Gail
does not care for them, so we don't have them at home.  I do have to
make certain that I want the usual cinnamon butter on the side --
otherwise they put so much on that it cloys the taste for me.

  remaining ingredients except granulated sugar.  Stir until well
  combined.  Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Roll into 1-inch balls.
  Place sugar in a small bowl. Roll balls in the sugar, coating well.
