Tried a new sweet potato recipe for Thanksgiving!

I made this for Thanskgiving and it was awesome! I've had trouble making a great sweet potato dish in the past and this will be a staple for us now. So easy too!

INGREDIENTS
1 large (40 oz) can of yams ( I use Princella or Bruce's)
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

(I also added a little brown sugar & cinnamon)

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, mix together the sweet potatoes, sugar, eggs, salt, butter, milk and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes or so, add mini marshmallows to the top& sprinkle w/ cinnamon. Broil until golden brown (only a few minutes)

Anyone else have any great new (or old) recipes to share?
