Sweet Potato Casserole

I grew up in New England, but between the years 2000 and 20006 I lived in Virginia. For the most part, Virginia is "southern" and they sure eat that way. One of the delicious treats I discovered while there was Sweet Potato Casserole. My mom doesn't like sweet potatoes, so this was never even offered to us. This stuff is super sweet and delicious. I make it once a year, on Thanksgiving. This year, I have been asked to bring two batches because everyone loves it so much.

This recipe is my friend's mom recipe and it is amazing.
