Ingredients

6 cups mashed sweet potatoes, cooked, mashed (see note at bottom of recipe)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup melted butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes. (Topping should be set and sort of melted into the sweet potatoes to form a crispy but flat top.).
*NOTE: To cook the sweet potatoes, fill a large pot with water and put the sweet potatoes in; turn on stove to HIGH.

Tips:

For the perfect sweet potato casserole, choose sweet potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes.
Baking the sweet potatoes whole in their skin helps to preserve their moisture and flavor.
Once the sweet potatoes are baked, let them cool slightly before handling them.
Use a potato ricer or food mill to create a smooth and lump-free sweet potato puree.
Be careful not to overmix the casserole batter, as this can make it tough.
When baking the casserole, cover it with foil for the first 30 minutes to prevent the top from getting too brown.
Uncover the casserole for the last 15 minutes of baking to allow the top to brown and crisp.
Serve the casserole warm, topped with your favorite toppings, such as marshmallows, pecans, or whipped cream.
