This is a true Southern recipe, right from the heart of Dixie. Miss Mary says she doubles the recipe for big family dinners and bakes it in a 13 x 9" baking dish. I'll post the smaller recipe that uses a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and let you decide how much you need to make. =^..^= Shhh... There's a Top Secret shortcut in Step...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1 1/2 qt. casserole dish with cooking spray.
- 2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Next, add & lightly mash the sweet potatoes with the mixer beaters. Then add the sugar, beaten eggs, salt, milk, and vanilla extract and beat with the mixer until well-blended. Spoon into the prepared casserole dish. TOP SECRET: If you're rushed for time, buy a 32 oz. microwavable container of sweet potatoes and spoon into the casserole dish, then add the topping. We won't tell! =^..^=
- 3. For the topping, in a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Then add the brown sugar, flour, & chopped pecans and mix together with a fork.
- 4. Pour or spoon the topping over the sweet potato mixture...
- 5. ...and spread evenly. I usually also toss a few pecan halves on top, just for "pretty." (They are in the next photo.)
- 6. Bake at 350 degrees F. for about 35 minutes. The topping should be golden brown.
- 7. NOTE: The 15 minutes of prep time listed above doesn't include cooking the sweet potatoes before beginning the recipe.
