Grandma Louise's Sweet Potato Casserole With Praline Topping

Recipe #293064 | 1½ hours | 20 min prep | SERVES 12 , 1 2-quart baking dish (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: xpbowling

This is my Grandma Louise's recipe for a sweet potato casserole. I swear it is the best thing I have ever eaten. She makes it every Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. If you are bringing this to a party, it can easily be reheated by covering it with aluminum foil, placing it in an oven at 350°F, and heating it for about 20-30 minutes or until just bubbling. Enjoy! Note: Prep time does NOT include time needed to prepate fresh sweet potatoes/yams.

    When my husband told me no more cheesy potatoes for Easter dinner I went on-line and found this receipe and To Die for Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes, (Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes.) Both were easy and fun to make. They were a big hit and I will be adding them to our collection of family favorite receipes. Many Thanks!
