I was asked to email this recipe to my sister this morning, so I thought that since I had it on the computer, I would share it with the rest of the world. I cannot take credit for this recipe, although I slightly modified the amounts to fit into a larger pan. It is a Taste of Home Recipe, originally titled "Mom's Sweet Potato Bake." I don't know what year it came out, but it has been a favorite at our house since we first made it. It is good hot, cold, and in between. It is an excellent side dish, and also a good desert. I think I've had the leftovers for breakfast a few times, too. Enjoy!
