Sweet Potato Casserole     

Ingredients:
40 oz sweet potatoes, undrained
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup butter, melted

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 2 quart baking dish. Place the sweet potatoes and their liquid in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil. Cook 15 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, drain, and mash. In a medium bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes, white sugar, eggs, 1/3 cup butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Spread evenly into the prepared baking dish. In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar, chopped pecans, flour, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Sprinkle over the sweet potato mixture. Bake 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
