Senator Russell's Sweet Potatoes

This is my sister Dianne's specialty at family gatherings.  Anna makes it in Altanta and always gets request for it at gatherings.

3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup melted butte
1/2 cup milk

Mix together and pour into a dish that has been sprayed with Pam.

Topping- 1 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 cup flour, 1 cup chopped pecans, 1/2 cup melted butter.  Mix together and spread on top of the sweet potatoes.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
I have made this with canned sweet potatoes. It's easier and it's fine.
You will need to double the recipe to make a 9 x 13 pan.
