Sweet potato casserole

You MUST try this recipe. It is so delicious; it tastes more like dessert than a side dish. I can't wait to have it again on Thanksgiving!

Here's the recipe, per Granny Beulah:

"Sweet Potatoes Casserole

3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 st. margarine or butter
mix through, pour into greased casserole dish

topping:

1/2 st. butter
1/2 cup flour
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup nuts chopped

Melt butter, add other ingredients. Sprinkle nuts over top and bake at 350° until bubbly. You peel, wash, and cut up potatoes first. I usually boil about 4 med. sweet potatoes until tender, drain out water, mash up to use."

This recipe is (thankfully!) really exact and complete. I think she must have gotten to the end of writing this recipe and thought to herself, "You know, those kids probably don't even know how to mash sweet potatoes... I'd better add a sentence at the end so they don't mess this up." She was right. I wouldn't have known exactly how to do it. Pointer: the smaller your dice of the potatoes, the less time they take to boil. If you can see, I cut them up pretty small.

One tweak: Let it cook for a good 15 min or so after it starts bubbling so that you get that good crispy crust on top with those nuts. We took it out right after we saw it bubbling and had to put it back in for a few more minutes.

Finally, here she is with her partner, Mr. Peppercorn Pork Loin. 

They love each other. We love them.
