Peel, dice and cook yams until tender; while hot, drain. Add butter, sugar, milk, eggs and flavoring. Beat well. Fold in coconut. Pour half into a greased baking dish. Cover with marshmallows. Pour in another layer of yam mixture and top with marshmallows. Cover so marshmallows don't burn. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes.
