      Step 1<\/h5>\n

      Combine boiled and mashed sweet potatoes with sugar, butter, beaten eggs and milk.\u00a0 Pour into casserole dish.\u00a0 Set aside.\u00a0 (Note: I boil potatoes whole and still in the skin to retain flavor and moisture.\u00a0 Also, peeling cooked skin is much easier to remove than peeling raw potatoes.)<\/p>\n

      [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Cormorant Garamond|500|||||||” text_text_color=”#1e1e1e” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_5_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_5_line_height=”1.8em” custom_margin=”||0px|” custom_padding=”36px||36px|” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_fold=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” border_color_all=”rgba(51,51,51,0.1)” border_width_bottom=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

      Step 2<\/h5>\n

      For the Topping:
      Combine brown sugar, flour, butter and pecans.\u00a0 Sprinkle on top of sweet potato mixture.<\/p>\n

      [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Cormorant Garamond|500|||||||” text_text_color=”#1e1e1e” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||||||” header_5_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_5_line_height=”1.8em” custom_margin=”||0px|” custom_padding=”36px||36px|” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_fold=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” border_color_all=”rgba(51,51,51,0.1)” border_width_bottom=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

      Step 3<\/h5>\n

      If cooking immediately, place in preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until topping is brown and\/or casserole is bubbly.<\/p>\n

      [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Cormorant Garamond|500|||||||” text_text_color=”#1e1e1e” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||||||” header_5_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_5_line_height=”1.8em” custom_margin=”||0px|” custom_padding=”36px||36px|” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_fold=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” border_color_all=”rgba(51,51,51,0.1)” border_width_bottom=”1px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

      Step 4<\/h5>\n

      If not baking immediately, store in refrigerator.\u00a0 Add cooking time of 15 to 20 minutes if baking cold casserole.\u00a0 (Place cold casserole dish in cold oven to prevent dish from breaking.)<\/p>\n
