Delicious and Easy Mozzarella Cheese Sweet Potato Dessert
A perfect sweet potato treat that’s both delicious and satisfying! This recipe transforms simple sweet potatoes into an irresistible dessert with the magic of melted mozzarella cheese.
Ingredients- 1 medium sweet potato
- Shredded mozzarella cheese (to your liking)
- Honey (optional, to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by thoroughly washing your sweet potato. Steam or microwave it until it’s tender when pierced with a fork. Once cooked, let it cool slightly before peeling. Peeling while still warm makes it much easier.
Step 2
Cut the peeled sweet potato into bite-sized pieces. You can slice them into rounds, cubes, or even lengthwise – feel free to choose your preferred shape.
Step 3
Arrange the sweet potato pieces on a microwave-safe plate or dish. Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, ensuring the cheese covers most of the sweet potato pieces. Adjust the amount of cheese to your preference.
Step 4
Now, it’s time for the microwave! Place the plate in the microwave and heat for about 30 seconds. Check to see if the cheese is starting to melt. Then, microwave for another 30 seconds, or until the cheese is fully melted and gooey, coating the sweet potato. (Total time around 1 minute, adjust based on your microwave’s power).
Step 5
Once the mozzarella cheese is beautifully melted and embracing the sweet potato, your dessert is ready! For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle a little honey over the melted cheese. You can also use sugar or corn syrup if you prefer. However, the natural sweetness of the potato and the savory cheese are often delicious enough on their own!
