Sweet Potatoes

From my Aunt Mary


INGREDIENTS:
4 Whole Medium Sweet Potatoes
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Milk
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
1 tsp Salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup pecans (chopped)
1/2 cup flour
3/4 stick of butter

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375. Wash sweet potatoes and bake for 30-35 minutes (until a fork easily goes through- bakings times will differ on size of potatoes!). Remove from oven and slice them open and scrap out flesh into a bowl. Turn oven up to 400. Add 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs and 1 tsp of vanilla and salt. With a masher, mash up potatoes and mix the mixture together. You don't want the potatoes to be perfectly smooth. In another bowl, add brown sugar, pecans, 1/2 cup flour and 3/4 stick of butter and mash together until combined. Put potato mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle the crumb mixture on top. Bake at 400 for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
