Southern Sweet Potato Casserole
- 5 sweet potatoes, mashed
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- CRUNCHY TOPPING
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup corn flakes, crushed

- Note for quick method of cooking sweet potatoes -- I put the sweet potatoes in a baking dish and add 1/4 cup of water. Put a lid on and microwave for approximately 20 minutes. After they have cooled, peel and mash.
- Mix all 8 ingredients for sweet potato mixture. Pour into a greased casserole dish. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 35 minutes and see below for crunchy topping.
- Mix all 4 ingredients for topping and sprinkle over potatoes. Bake for an additional 8 minutes and remove from oven.
