This is a recipe that my husband's family has been making for years. They usually make it for Christmas and Thanksgiving. We sometimes will eat it as a nice vegetarian meal. Ingredients:
8 medium sweet potatoes or 8 medium yams |
3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 stick melted) |
1/3 cup evaporated milk |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup pecans |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 cup flour |
Directions:
1. Boil sweet potatoes or yams till soft. Mash together. 2. Mix mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup melted butter, evaporated milk, eggs and vanilla. Mix together and beat well. 3. Pour into a 9 X 13 pan. 4. Now make the topping. Mix brown sugar, flour, and pecans together. 5. Mix in remaining cup of melted butter (about 1/4 cup). Mix well. 6. Pour topping on top of potatoes. 7. Bake 40-50 minutes at 350 degrees. |
