Sweet Potato Casserole IV
YUM! My only complaint about this recipe would be that the amount of potatoes needed is a little unclear. I discovered eventually that you need 3 cups of already mashed potatoes. I measured the 3 cups when chopped and raw. Then I cooked and mashed them, leaving me with about half as much as necessary, so I had to cook and mash a second batch. So if you're wondering how many sweet potatoes makes 3 cups mashed, I'd say about 6-7 average sized sweet potatoes. Other than that, it's a wonderful recipe! I don't like sweet potatoes, but these were good enough that even I had a helping. My family went nuts over them for Thanksgiving. I made two batches, one with the recipe's topping, one with caramel and toasted marshmallows. Both got rave reviews. p.s. I used cream because I didn't have any evapoted milk, and it turned out fine.

Creamed Chicken for Biscuits
Very good. I leave out the garlic because I don't think it needs it. This recipe makes a delicious gravy for biscuits or inside a pie crust for pot pie (just add mixed veggies).

Chocolate Mint Candy Pie
I thought this recipe was just OK. It wasn't nearly minty enough, in my opinion, and it was so rich we all could only eat a few bites (there were a lot of plates with half-eaten pieces, which I hate to see after that much work). I didn't use the coffee because I didn't have any on hand. I'm not sure if that would have improved the flavor or just made the mint even less noticable. I wouldn't make this pie again. It wasn't awful, but I'd rather find another recipe for next time with more mint and less heaviness.
