Ingredients

Casserole:

3 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes (If you want to cook them the old fashioned way, bake the sweet potatoes at 350 until they’re tender ~ about 45 minutes for average sized potatoes; if you’re in a hurry, boil / steam them in about a half inch of water. I cook mine skins on, but it really doesn’t matter).

2 eggs

3/4-1 cup of sugar (according to your taste)

2/3 stick butter, softened (DON’T substitute margarine here!)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Topping:

1 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup self-rising flour

1/3 cup butter, softened

1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped (Tip: pulse on ‘chop’ setting in your food processor.)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375.

Mix well all ingredients for casserole, then pour into ungreased 9”x12” baking dish.

Combine all ingredients for topping, then crumble / spread over casserole mixture.

Bake for approximately 30 minutes.

Yumm!

Hi, y'all! I thought I'd send you a note about one of my favorite Thanksgiving and Christmas dishes.

This is a creamy, very sweet-potatoe-y dish. Notice it doesn't have the milk that a lot of recipes do. The eggs lighten it up a bit so that it's not too dense. Even if you like the other recipes, try this one sometimes ~ I really think you'll love it. Blessings, deb
