I found this recipe in a Taste of Home Magazine years ago and have never tried anything else since. We (or at least those of us who like sweet potatoes) LOVE this recipe! It's one of our Thanksgiving favorites.
Sweet Potato Bake
Ingredients for a 9x13 dish:
6 cups mashed sweet potatoes (About 1 medium sized sweet potato makes 1 cup. Peel, cube and boil until tender -just like you would regular potatoes)
2 cups sugar
1 cup milk
1 stick of butter or margarine (1/2 cup), softened
6 eggs
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. vanilla
Topping:
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
4 T. cold butter or margarine
In a mixing bowl, beat sweet potatoes, sugar, milk, butter, eggs, salt and vanilla until smooth. Transfer to a greased 9x13 baking dish. (You can also mix this part quickly in a food processor.)
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and flour, cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over potato mixture. (You can also add chopped pecans to this mixture.)
Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes.
This is very delicious hot but also good cold.
I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!
