Aunt Sandy’s Sweet Potatoes
Potato Stuff
1 40 ounce can sweet potatoes, canned (drained well & mashed)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup evaporated milk
3 whole eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted
Crust Topping
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup butter
walnuts (optional)
Potato Stuff: Blend ingredients together. Mix well and pour into 13 x 9 pan.
Crust Topping: Mix first 3 ingredients until crumbly & sprinkle on top of potatoes. Then chunk 1 stick of butter over top. Bake uncovered @ 300 degrees for 1 hour.
Simple and to the point! My lovely Aunt Sandy makes these and she was kind enough to share the recipe with my mom, who brought it to a Thanksgiving at my in-laws many moons ago. Now I make it every year as “my dish” that I have to bring! Everyone loves it. Even me and I really like only 1 other sweet potato thing, but I’m expanding my sweet potato horizons.
Now these may seem like it will feed many, but it usually doesn’t last that long!!!
Aunt Sandy’s recipe actually calls for pecans and while your way is very good without the nuts — with the pecans they are awesome! Kind of a cross between pecan and pumpkin pie almost. Now I want some. Love, Mommy
