I thought I would share this... my family request this quite often.
5 large cooked sweet potatoes (I wait to mash mine with the rest of the ingredients)
1 cup white sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup of 2% milk
1 stick of Unsalted Butter , melted
1 teaspoon of vanilla (I use pure vanilla)
1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Topping:
1 cup packed light brown sugar
4 tsp unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup Bisquik
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
marshmallows, enough to cover the top
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray a 10x13 baking dish.
Combine the sweet potatoes, sugar, eggs, milk, butter, vanilla and salt in your mixer. Beat on medium until well mixed and there are no more lumps. Pour mixture into the baking dish.
Topping:
Combine the brown sugar, butter, Bisquik and pecans (if desired) in a separate bowl. Crumble the topping over the sweet potato mixture and bake for 20 - 25 minutes, until the topping is golden brown. Remove from oven and top with marshmallows. Return to oven (Broil) just until the marshmallow are brown.
Serve hot and enjoy!

Merry Christmas... see you soon!
I am most likely not going to make it back to my computer today or tomorrow. I wanted to take a minute to share my thoughts on Christmas... Don't get trapped in the commercial part of Christmas! This day should have nothing to do with what you "get" or for that matter what you "give". Enjoy the time with family, friends and even strangers! Share a smile... they go a long way! Make sure to add Jesus into your plans... he is the reason for the season after all!

2. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well to blend.
3. Stir in chocolate and vanilla.
4. Combine flour and baking powder in a separate bowl and add to above mixture 1/2 cup at a time. When you get to the last cup you will probbly have to mix it in by hand.
5. If dough is soft, chill for up to 2 hours.
6. Roll out on a floured surface and cut into shapes with a knife or cookie cutters.

Last Minute Shopping Deals
More than half of you (56 percent) completed your Christmas shopping prior to this week, but almost 20 percent of you haven’t even started yet, according to a Consumer Reports holiday shopping poll. That means many of you will be out this week, with 1 in 10 people hitting the stores Christmas Eve.
For those waiting until the last minute to complete your holiday shopping list, here’s some info on what’s open when.
ToysRUs (open until 9 or 10 p.m. on Christmas Eve, depending on location): Some of the current sale prices may not be valid through Friday, but you can sign up for their mobile alertsto get Deals of the Day sent to your phone through Christmas.
Walmart (many will stay open until 8 p.m., but call your local store): Sales include a $225 8GB iPod touch with a bonus $50 iTunes gift card and a Toshiba Satellite 15.6″ Dual Core Laptop for $398.
Target (most open until 7 p.m., depending on location): Sales include a free $40 Target gift card with purchase of an 8GB iPod touch and a free $20 Target gift card with purchase of a $299.99 Xbox 360 Kinect bundle.
Best Buy (open until 5 p.m.): Order online by 3 p.m. Friday to pick up purchases in store later that day. Get a free smartphone, with options including the Droid Incredible, with purchase of a two-year plan. You can also buy an HP Laptop with AMD Athlon II Processor and 14″ Display for $349.99.
Alternative shopping
If you’re a pro at shopping on Christmas Eve, you already know this, but for the rest of you: Convenience stores sometimes house great gifts, or at least stocking stuffers when you’re in a crunch. One-stop shopping for gift cards, cosmetics, candy and small electronics can save you hours of shopping time. Consider your local Walgreens, CVS, grocery store or even gas station depending on how tight you are on time.
Check out this video of Feast Shop New York Editor TIffany Davis, who shops for her entire extended family at CVS — in one hour. The batteries are a bit of a stretch for me. But it’ll give you a better idea of the goodies you can find if you’re on the lookout.
Where are you searching for gifts on Friday? Are there non-traditional places you like to find presents?
