Sweet Potato Casserole

We all THOROUGHLY enjoyed my friends recipe for Sweet Potato Casserole 

last night for Thanksgiving dinner.  We actually made 2!!  

I thought I'd share the recipe here.  

The topping is what makes it sooo yummmo!  Enjoy!

FILLING:

3 c.	Sweet Potatos, cooked & mashed
	OR
1 Lg. can	Yams, mashed
2 Lg.	Eggs
1/3 c	Evaporated Milk/2% Milk
1 tsp.	Vanilla Extract
1/4 c	Butter, melted
1/4 tsp.	Salt
1/2 tsp.	Ground Nutmeg
1/2 c.	Brown Sugar, packed

 

TOPPING:

1/2 c.	Brown Sugar, packed
1/3 c.	White Flour
1/3 c	Butter, softened
1 c	Pecans, chopped

 

 

Steps & Notes:

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a large bowl, mash the potatoes and add all  filling ingredients.  Stir until well blended.

Pour into a greased 2 qt dish (so it's about 1 1/2- 2 inches deep; no more or it won't cook the whole way through!)

In a separate bowl, mix together all the topping ingredients.  Sprinkle topping evenly over the filling.

Bake, uncovered, for 40min. Until topping looks firm, but not burnt

Allow to cool at least 15min.  Serves 10+ servings.
