This is a really good recipe.  If you haven't made sweet potatoes this way you need to try it!


It's very similar to what I use, and what I like about it is:

1) The pecan topping is excellent! So much better than marshmallows.

2) This recipe is easy to adjust to your own taste!

- I don't like it as sweet, so I only add a few Tablespoons of brown sugar, so it's less desert like.

- I like to add half a package of cream cheese, instead of the milk - YUM!


Thanks for posting this, Art!

I make this recipe with the Splenda brown sugar..it has the half brown sugar and real sugar. That helps a lot. And still tastes good,. Pam .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.
