Found this recipe by doing a Google search. When I clicked on the link Laura said she used on Pinterest a page came up wanting me to set up an account & pay a membership. When I searched online each link did the same thing. On the homepage where the recipe is when this box poped up I could not see the recipe. I clicked on select all & copy & pasted all the info on the page into Word & went in & copy & pasted the recipe from that. LOL!!! Here is Laura's post on Pinterest. The sweet potato casserole is on this board I moved it to the front- Entitled Mrs. Murphys Sweet Potato Praline- I used canned sweet potatoes on air because they are easier than fresh and you add so many ingredients you can't tell the difference. Note- you did not see topping on air because we ran out of time! Thanks for watching everyone. Laura
Mrs. Murphy's Sweet Potato Casserole
3 cups cooked sweet potatoes, baked and peeled
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
1 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 stick butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Mash potatoes and add all other ingredients. Pour into greased 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Add topping.
Praline Topping
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup flour (mix with sugar)
1 cup chopped pecans
Combine all topping ingredients (Mix: will be crumbly); sprinkle over casserole.
Bake 30 – 35 minutes in a preheated oven at 350 degrees.
For slow cooker- Mash canned or fresh sweet potatoes (but with all the add ins I don't think it matters) add everything even the praline topping. Cook on low 4 hrs. You will see it puff a little because of the eggs. You did not see topping added on air- we ran out of time!

Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 1-1/2 to 2 quart casserole dish; set aside.
Mash the cooked and cooled sweet potatoes until smooth; add the butter, half the sugar, pinch of salt and all of the half and half, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and vanilla extract; stir well and taste. Add the remaining sugar as needed to taste. Add the eggs and combine well. Pour into the casserole dish. Cover and bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes, until heated through well.
Remove, uncover and spread marshmallows on the top, bake uncovered about 10 minutes longer, or until marshmallows are nicely browned.
Serves about 6 - Double for the holidays.
Cook's Notes: Sweet potatoes may be boiled, baked or microwaved to cook. May substitute 3 (16 ounce) cans of candied yams, drained (like Bruce's brand), however, adjust sugar down accordingly to taste. Taste for sweetness before cooking, after adding all of the spices, but before adding the eggs. Marshmallows will puff up as they cook so for insurance, you may want to bake the casserole on an aluminum foil covered pan.
Make Ahead: If using the praline topping you can assemble this entire casserole the day before if you like. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature for about 30 minutes, and if using marshmallows, wait to add those as directed above.
Praline Topping:
This is enough praline topping for the casserole above, doubled. Reduce by half for the 6 serving size.
Melt the butter. Meanwhile mix the brown sugar, flour and pecans in a small bowl. Pour the butter into the brown sugar mixture and stir with a fork until well mixed. Eliminate the marshmallows and sprinkle the pecan mixture all over the top of the casserole. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with whole pecan halves after removing from the oven, if desired.
