Thanksgiving and Christmas are not complete without Mom's (grandmother) sweet potato casserole, it was my favorite item on her dinner table no matter the holiday. Since she is not here I make it every year for both holidays. My husband requested it for a Thanksgiving work party and it was such a hit that it was requested again for Christmas. I also had a request by a friend who has had it previous years. I thought I was totally over this dish until I smelled it baking once again and I just had to dive in. There were numerous recipe request on Thanksgiving but I made everyone wait till after the Christmas party, so here it is.
