Sweet Potato Casserole

This recipe comes from my sister in law Jessica who is from the south, and let me tell you it's the best!  It's like having your dessert along side your main dish.  You'll love it!  If  for some reason you're still making sweet potatoes with marshmallows you won't be after trying this recipe.
