Sweet, sweet potatoes

[weepingnaiad.livejournal.com]

This recipe actually got my mom to eat sweet potatoes. She always made them for the rest of us, but would never eat them. I believe I increased this from 3 c. potatoes to 4 c. as it was just a 'bit' sweet for the amount of potatoes. The topping caramelizes a bit if you cook it long enough, so I usually cook it longer than the 20 minutes.

Sweet, Sweet Potatoes

4 c. sweet potatoes, peeled, cooked and mashed
1 c. sugar
½ c. butter
2 eggs, beaten
½ c. milk
1 t. vanilla

Mix together. Place in 9 x 13” baking dish.

½ c. brown sugar
1 c. chopped pecans
½ c. flour
1/3 c. melted butter

Mix together with fork. Crumble over potatoes.

Bake at 350F for 20 minutes.
