Reader Recipe: Sweet Potato Casserole

In an earlier post I asked readers to submit favorite Thanksgiving recipes.  Our dear friend Dr. Liz Votsberger, from Bowling Green Ohio, has submitted a good one. 

Sweet Potato Casserole w/ Pecan Brown Sugar Glaze

Ingredients:

6 large sweet potatoes, peeled, medium diced and boiled until very tender
1 cup butter (2 sticks), softened
4 Eggs
Juice of 2 oranges (about 1/2 cup)
1/2-1 cup sugar
Vanilla (to taste)

While hot, whip sweet potatoes until fluffy, then add all other ingredients (minus the topping).  Whip again until fluffy.  Spoon into a greased 3 quart casserole dish.  Sprinkle with topping and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Topping:
Combine in saucepan:
2 TBSP flour
1 cup brown sugar
2 TBSP butter
Cook until sugar melts and then stir in 1 cup chopped pecans.

I want to thank Liz for taking the time to send in a recipe.  Any feedback from readers would be great.
