A sweet potato casserole is a MUST HAVE on all of our Holiday tables. There is just something so wonderful about the rich, creamy and fluffy casserole that makes the Holiday’s something super special.

In the past most of our casseroles have just had a brown sugar crumb topping because some of my family likes marshmallows and some like pecans and some like both and even a few that don’t like any so it was just easier to keep it minimal…well this year I decided to try and make (almost) everyone happy. I made a traditional sweet potato casserole loaded with brown sugar, butter, half & half and then topped with a delicious brown sugar crumble. Then as an added bonus I topped half of the casserole with mini marshmallows and the other half with chopped pecans…that way there is a little something for everyone (at least for all those who like sweet potato casserole’s).

If you wanted to really make it even more special you could use candied pecans or some spiced nuts. You could also cover the entire casserole with both marshmallows and nuts…not only would it be so, so good it would be very pretty!!

Sweet potatoes are a must have and this year they are super special!
