For all you procrastinators

Do you need to bring a side to dinner tomorrow? Not sure what to do? Make Sweet Potato Souffle--it's the best dish ever!



Sweet Potato Souffle

3-4 Cups (per 4-6 servings) of cooked, skinned, mashed sweet potato or yams
1/2 Cup melted butter
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 Cup milk
1/3 Cup orange juice
Dash of cinnamon and nutmeg if you like

Pre-bake sweet potatos or yams, peel and mash. Mix potatos with butter, eggs, vanilla, milk, and orange juice.

Place in pretty flat baking dish or pie pan.

Mix up topping:
1 Cup brown sugar
1/2 Cup self-rising flour (regular is fine if you don't have self-rising)
1 1/3 Cup softened butter
1 Cup chopped pecans (if you like)
(Add mini-marshmallows, and coconut shavings on top if you like)

Sprinkle topping over potato mixture and bake for 30-45 minutes at 350*F. Topping should be nicely browned when done. Serve hot.
