Marie Osmond's Sweet Potato Casserole


I have been searching high and low for Marie Osmond's sweet potato casserole recipe which I have used for years, and now I can't find it. I must be forgiven for I am 85 years youngs. Please help me.

Answer:

I'm sorry to say that I cannot find a recipe for Marie Osmond's Sweet Potato Casserole. I've found her cheesecake and her brownies, but no potatoes! I have compiled a few sweet potato recipes I did discover. I'm hoping that one of them will be similar to what you recall from Marie's recipe...or at least will be a new and wonderfully tasty addition to your holiday [cooking].

Sweet Potato Casserole 3


Serving size: 7
Calories per serving: 506

Ingredients:
4 whole medium sweet potatoes
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
2 whole eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup pecans
1/2 cup flour
3/4 stick butter


Directions:
Wash 4 medium sweet potatoes and bake them in a 375-degree oven until fork tender, about 30-35 minutes. When they are finished cooking slice them open and scrape out the flesh into a large bowl.

Add 1 cup of (regular granulated) sugar, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of salt. With a potato masher, mash them up just enough—you don’t want to be perfectly smooth.

Now, in a separate bowl, add 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup pecans, chopped (that means measure a cup of pecans, then chop them), ½ cup flour, and ¾ stick of butter. With a pastry cutter or fork, mash together until thoroughly combined.

Spread the sweet potato mixture into a regular baking dish and sprinkle the crumb mixture all over the top.

Bake in a 400-degree oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
