Sweet Potato Souffle
2 (# 2) cans of sweet potatoes, about 1 lb. 4 oz.
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. corn starch
4 eggs beaten slightly
2 sticks butter melted
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 cup whipping cream
Topping:
2/3 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup flour
2 cup pecans chopped well
1 stick butter at room temp.
Combine all ingredients for soufflé into a large mixing bowl and beat with a mixer until all or nearly all lumps of sweet potato is mashed. The more you whip it here will determine how puffy your soufflé is so mix very well.
Preheat oven to 350 and bake uncovered for about 45 minutes in a rectangle dish.
Before you take out the soufflé put all ingredients of topping into a bowl and mix. Your hands work very well. When you take the soufflé out of the oven take your topping and cover the soufflé. Your hands work very well here. You just will sprinkle it on top, and it will cover very well. Put back in oven for about 20 minutes. Take it out and watch them devour it.
