This is heavenly! We have it for all the major winter holidays. Goes wonderfully with Ham or Turkey. Preparation time does not include cooking the sweet potatoes first.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but this casserole was surprisingly good. The pecan topping really made the dish.

The casserole was a bit dry. I think I should have added more milk or butter.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

This casserole was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The sweet potatoes were perfectly cooked and the pecan topping was the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy. I will definitely be making this again.
