Here it is, THE yams you have to make for Thanksgiving this year! My kids believe me when I tell them they are candy!
Thanks to Kathryn for posting some great ideas on what to do for Thanksgiving. She had a really cute idea on making mini cornucopias out of sugar cones, filling them with small treats and closing them off with cellophane. She has a great way of bending the points up to look more like cornucopias! Go see the comments under my last Thanksgiving Ideas post for the instructions!
These Yams are so good you’ll make them for every special occasion!

These Yams are so good you’ll make them for every special occasion!
-3-4 Yams- peeled, cut up, and boiled for about 20 Min. Mash.
-or- 2 cans- 29 oz. Cut yams canned in light syrup, drained and mashed.
-1 teaspoon vanilla
-1/2 C. Butter
-2 Eggs
-1/2 C. Evaporated Milk
-3/4 C. Granulated Sugar
Mash these first 6 ingredients together then add to a greased or buttered 9×13″ cake pan.
Topping:
-1/3 C. Softened Butter
-1/3 C. Flour
-1 C. Brown Sugar
?-1 C. Chopped Walnuts? (if desired)
Mash these ingredients together until they are crumbs and sprinkle on top of mashed yams mixture.
DO NOT COVER
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Super easy and super yummy! And I don’t like yams!
I loved this casserole last year for Thanksgiving and I'm definitely making it again. The only difference from my recipe is that I used Pecans instead of Walnuts. Taster's choice, I guess. Thanks for keeping us in the yum!
