Thanksgiving recipe of the week....

This dish is one of my all time favorites. I make Praline sweet potatoes every year for Thanksgiving  and even my picky brothers like it.  This is always one of the first dishes to go. It's almost like dessert. Heavenly....

Praline sweet potatoes

 4 C. mashed sweet potatoes

½ C. white sugar

2 T. vanilla

4 eggs, beaten

½ pint heavy cream

¼ lb. butter

1 C. brown sugar

½ C. flour

 Butter one 2 qt. casserole dish. Preheat oven to 350. In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, sugar, vanilla, eggs and cream. Blend well, and spread evenly in casserole dish. Prepare the topping by combining the butter, brown sugar, flour and pecans. Mix until crumbly, and sprinkle over sweet potato mixture. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.
