I expected this to be so good, but was disappointed. This dish should go on the dessert table; way too much sugar, and I cut the sugar by half in the yam mixture! The baked consistency was oddly dry. Won't make this one again.

I found this recipe too sweet. Just not what I like. It was more of a desert.

forgot to say add the rum before cooking and it gives it a great flavor after it's done

I have been using this recipe since 2004. My guys (husband, 3 boys) love this recipe. I make it throughout the year.

YUM!! Way too much sugar, though. We used 1/3 the recommended sugar and just half the butter. It was still decadent. Save yourself the calories.

My husband almost ate the whole thing! A+++ I didn't put as much sugar as it called for, but it still was sooo tasty!

This was a major hit with the family on thanksgiving. We have a nut allergy in the family thought, so I turned the topping into a crumple by swapping the nuts for oats and adding a little bit more butter to the mix, everyone loved it!

My son hates sweet potatoes, but gave this recipe a 20 on the 1-5 scale. I think he liked it ;) My husband had 3rds. Thank you!

I have been making different sweet potato dishes for decades. I can now say I have found my permanent one. I made this with 6 medium/smallish yams - the reddish fleshed sweet potato ;) The only change I made was to use brown sugar instead of white in the main body of the casserole. I did not double the crumble topping as some others have done, but I did use a 9x9 baking dish instead of the 9x13 recommended. This gave a smaller surface area and I had more than enough topping to fully cover the casserole in a thick layer of yummy goodness. My son who used to like sweet potatoes in the past but who had decided he no longer did was convinced with some urging to at least give this a try ... he did and when we were cleaning up he made a point of making sure the sweet potato leftovers in particular were handled properly to ensure he'd get to have some more the next day ;) I'd say without a doubt this was a winner.

This will become a regular occurance at our family suppers. Delicious. I had a hard time peeling and mashing the sweet potatoes after only 35 min in the over. I found they weren't cooked nearly enough. I would put them in for much longer next time, or even peal and boil them.

I made half the recipe using 3 boiled sweet potatoes, but made the full amount of topping. Followed the rest of the recipe exactly. The topping was great! I wish the sweet potato mixture was creamier. Will add more cream/butter next time, but very yummy recipe!

I have never made sweet potatoes and decided to try them for a recent birthday dinner. I made these exactly as directed and everyone loved them and asked me for the recipe. Thank you Heather for such a great recipe!!

I used this recipe on Thanksgiving for the first time and then several times since-very good and rich. I omit the pecans-not a nut fan. and put in ramkins with mini-mellows on top and brown with my torch. Presentation is great. Thanks

Best use of a sweet potato ever! New favorite! I cut down the recipe to use just one sweet potato my grandfather gave me- and it was awesome. Thank you!

I make this casserole every Thanksgiving and Christmas and a few other times throughout the year just for fun. This is a family favorite for us. My husband claims that this casserole is the reason he married me. He said it just took one bite and he knew he had to marry me.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe! Especially the crunchy, delicious topping. My only complaint is that this recipe is a little sweet - I would probably cut back on the sugar a little. However, with less or the same amount of sugar, this is fantastic! Whole family loved it.
