Cheri's Sweet Potato Casserole

November 29, 2013

My family loves sweet potatoes just about any way you might “fix” them. This baked sweet potato casserole is my favorite. Wonderful side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas but we love this anytime.

This recipe makes a large pot to feed 8 or more people but you can make half a recipe!~!

8 medium to large sweet potatoes, cooked and peeled (I boil mine. You could also use canned sweet potatoes, drained. Two of the tall 40 ounce cans, but I think the fresh are best)
1 stick butter or 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons
1/4 cup heavy cream (could use evaporated milk or regular milk)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Marshmallows (Optional but Oooh SO Good, We always do them)

Heat Oven to 350 Degrees Cook and peel sweet potatoes till tender, and drain then mash with potato masher.or use your mixer, it's easier. Add butter and cream to potatoes just like if mashing regular...
