Easy Sweet Potato Casserole

I get a lot of people who like this recipe and you can do it with the pecan topping or just with marshmellows. My mom has been making this for Thanksgiving for a few years. Great for the holidays!


Ingredients:

3 cups mashed sweet potatoes (I use canned)

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs lightly beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup melted butter (the original recipe calls for 1/2 cup but I reduced it because it is swimming in butter)

Pecan Topping:

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup flour

1/3 cup melted butter

1/2 cup chopped pecans (the original recipe calls for 1 cup, but it was way to much for my taste)

OR

Marshmellow Topping:
2-3 layers of mini marshmellows...one layer turns to mush.

Combine first 6 ingredients. Pour into a sprayed/buttered 1 1/2-2 quart casserole dish. Mix Pecan Topping ingredients together and sprinkle over top OR use mini marshmellows. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes, until hot and browned (160 degrees).
