Ingredients

  • 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup dark rum
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/3 cup self-rising flour
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted

Directions

The amount of rum can be varied according to taste (the casserole is also good without it, if you so desire.) . Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2 In a mixing bowl, mix together mashed potatoes and white sugar, then stir in the eggs. Pour the milk, vanilla, and 1/2 cup butter into the mixture all at once. Stir well, then pour in the rum and stir until evenly dispersed. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
3 In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, pecans, flour, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the mashed potato mixture.
4 Bake 30 minutes in preheated oven. Let sit at least 10 minutes before serving.
