Sweet Potato Praline Casserole

This recipe comes from:
 
720 St. Louis Street~ New Orleans, Louisiana ~ 70115
Phone: (504) 525-7788  Fax: (504) 525-7809  

Course: Side Dishes

Ingredients:

 5 large  sweet potatoes or yams
 1/3 cup  milk
 1/2 cup  (1/4 pound) softened butter
 1/2 cup  heavy cream
 1/2 cup  sugar
 1 cup  light brown sugar
 2 eggs  beaten
 1/3 cup  melted butter
 1 teaspoon  vanilla
 1 cup  pecans, chopped

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Scrub the sweet potatoes or yams well and place them in the oven. Bake until tender, about 40 minutes, and remove. When they are cool enough to handle, halve them and scoop out the insides into a large mixing bowl. Mash well. You should have about 3 cups.
Mix the softened butter into the mashed yams or sweet potatoes along with the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and milk. Pour the mixture into a baking pan or casserole dish.
Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan. Add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it reaches the soft-ball stage on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and beat in the butter and the chopped pecans. Pour this mixture over the yams. Bake until very hot and beginning to brown.
Serves: Serves 6-8.
Additional Notes:
During Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks, the lines form early in front of the restaurant with people and their empty casserole dishes waiting to fill them with this wonderful side dish. Make it for your next family gathering and they'll ask for it every year.
