Sweet Potato Casserole.

This is my personal recipe for sweet potato casserole. I challenge you to find one that is better. Some of our family eats this as dessert.

Sunday Sweet Potatoes

3 packages refrigerated sliced yam patties, mashed
Note: The yam patties are usually somewhere in the fresh meat section of the grocery store. If you don’t see them, ask the butcher. They come 8 or so slices to a package. Sometimes they are in the frozen veggie section.

1/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 stick butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping
2 to 3 cups mini marshmallows
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup flaked coconut
1/4 cup flour
1 cup chopped pecans
1 stick butter, melted

Beat sweet potatoes with sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla in large bowl until fluffy. Spoon into a 9X13 baking dish. Spread marshmallows over potatoes. Combine coconut, pecans, brown sugar, and flour in small bowl. Add 1/2 cup melted butter, mixing well. Sprinkle mixture over marshmallows. Bake at 325˚ for about 30 minutes, or until bubbly.
