    Recipe Introduction


    This recipe makes THE BEST yam casserole we've ever eaten. When I announced that I'd misplaced the recipe, my family stopped talking to me. Fortunately, I'd shared it with enough people that I could recover it.

    List of Ingredients




    · Two 2-lb 8oz cans of yams, drained, or 4 lbs. cooked, peeled fresh
    · 2/3 cup orange juice
    · 1 T grated orange rind
    · 5 T. brandy or rum
    · 2 t. salt
    · freshly ground pepper to taste
    · 1 t. ground ginger
    · 4 T. butter, melted
    · 1/3 c. light or golden brown sugar, packed
    · 3 egg yolks

    Recipe



    1. Beat yams till smooth. Add rest of ingredients and beat till smooth.
    2. Place in greased casserole and smooth top.

    Praline topping:
    · 2/3 cup light or golden brown sugar
    · 1 stick butter, melted
    · 1 c. chopped pecans
    · 1 t. cinnamon

    1. Mix and spread evenly over top of casserole.
    2. Bake 350F for 45-50 min. till golden brown and bubbly.
    Notes: Use a 12" shallow quiche dish. The night before, make sweet potato part. Recipe may be doubled or tripled, but do not make in a deeper dish or the ratio between potatoes and topping will be off.

    A single recipe makes 8 to 12 servings, depending on the amount of other foods being served.
