Yummy, needs more crustNovember 27, 2009By icd1
"When I went to pull out my sweet potato casserole this year, it was gone! So I found this one, which looked similar to what I usually make. I had to make it twice this year. The first time, I found the topping to barely cover the top-that's one of our favorite parts! So, I doubled the topping the second time and it's perfect. I find it tastes best after its cooled down to room temp. When cold, it's as good as ice cream. LOL YUM!!"
