Sweet Potato Casserole

This was always a hit at Grandma’s Holiday dinners, whether it be Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter.  Depending on which grandchild you ask, some will call it a casserole, some will call it”yum – yum”.   You can make this with or without nuts (we prefer without and adjust the topping recipe for one and a half of what is listed below.)

Blend together with a hand chopper if there are nuts to make them fine, or simply use a fork if you leave the nuts out.

Bake at 350° for 35 minutes.  Enjoy!!!
