    Ingredients

    • 3 c. Cooked sweet potatoes, mashed
    • 1 c. White sugar
    • 3 x Large eggs, slightly beaten
    • 1/2 c. Lowfat milk
    • 1 stk margarine, softened
    • 1 Tbsp. Vanilla
    • 1 tsp Baking pwdr
    • 1 c. Brown sugar
    • 1/2 c. Flour
    • 1/2 tsp Baking pwdr
    • 1/2 stk margarine, melted
    • 2 Tbsp. Lowfat milk
    • 1 c. Minced pecans

    Directions

    1. Mix all topping ingredients. Cut 2 pcs of waxed paper larger than the top of your baking dish. On one piece, place the baking dish upside down.
    2. With a table knife trace around the dish to get approximate size of baking dish top. Place mixed topping ingredients in the center of this shape.
    3. Place the second piece of waxed paper over the topping to the drawn shape.
    4. Use a rolling pin to spread the topping to the drawn shape. (Remeber to take into account if your dish flares at the top a little. You want the topping to be able to go down into the dish to set on top of the mashed potato mix. Also, be careful not to roll the topping mix too large, as it will be frzn when you attempt to lay it on top of the potato mix.)
    5. When size is accomplished and with waxed paper still intact, slide topping onto a cookie sheet and place in freezer for 15 min or possibly more to harden.
    6. (This can be done the day before.) When ready, take from freezer.
    7. Combine mashed sweet potatoes, white sugar, beaten Large eggs, 1/2 c. lowfat milk, 1 stick softened margarine, vanilla and 1 tsp. baking pwdr. Pour into greased baking dish deep sufficient to have room for sweet potatoes to "puff"
    8. up. A 9 inch diameter baking dish works nicely.
    9. Starting at one corner of top piece of waxed paper on frzn topping, carefully pull paper from topping. Gently turn topping over onto the sweet potato mix and again pull wax paper from topping. Make certain which topping goes to edges of baking dish as much as possible.
    10. Bake approximately 30 min at 350 degrees.
    11. Serves approximately 8-12 depending on how many children and large appetitites you are feeding!
    12. NOTES : Allow plenty of time to cook this. I found the recommended 30 min is not long sufficient.
