In addition to sharing the recipe, Dolly noted Rachel’s special touch: “Rachel likes to cover her casserole with marshmallows. You have to – it’s just one of those things.” Their Sweet Potato Casserole, perfect for the fall season, is among many nostalgic recipes included in the book, which blends family stories with Southern-style dishes.
