Preheat your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). This will create the perfect warm environment for your casserole.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the 4 cups of mashed sweet potatoes with 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of melted butter, 2 beaten eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/3 cup of milk. Stir this mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Make sure it’s well-distributed for even cooking.
In a separate bowl, mix together 1 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup of softened butter, and 1 cup of chopped pecans until crumbly. This will create a delightful crunchy topping.
Crumble the topping mixture evenly over the sweet potato filling in the baking dish. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Keep an eye on it as it turns golden brown and becomes irresistible!
Once baked, let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Slice it into portions and enjoy slices of pure sweet potato bliss!
