My favorite holiday dish has always been my mother’s sweet potatoes. She mashes them and puts a sugary topping on it that is just the icing on the cake of any holiday meal. Sweet potato casserole can be reheated for an oatmeal alternative in the morning or can be eaten at almost any time of day.
Ingredients:
3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup sugar
1/3 stick of butter
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon rum flavor
2 eggs beaten
Topping:
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/2 stick butter
1/4 cup evaporated milk
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mix all of the potato ingredients together and spread in an ungreased pan.
Mix topping ingredients in a saucepan, stirring over medium heat until melted.
Spread topping over potatoes and cook for 30 to 45 minutes.
