Now this sounds really good! I think I will try it for our Thanksgiving Dinner

Casserole:
Vegetable-oil cooking spray
5 pound(s) sweet potatoes
1/2 cup(s) fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon(s) fresh-grated orange zest
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup(s) granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla
2 tablespoon(s) butter

Praline Streusel:
2 cup(s) chopped pecans
1 (firmly packed) cup(s) light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup(s) butter
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla
1/8 teaspoon(s) salt

Directions

1. Prepare casserole: Lightly coat a 9- by 13-inch pan with cooking spray and set it aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. With a fork, prick sweet potato skins all over and roast on a baking sheet until soft, about 1 hour. Allow sweet potatoes to cool, then peel. Place in a large bowl and mash until smooth with a potato masher. Add orange juice and zest. Fold in eggs, granulated sugar, baking powder, vanilla, and butter. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared pan. (At this point the casserole can be tightly covered and refrigerated until ready to serve.)
2. Make praline streusel: In a saucepan, place pecans, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, and salt and bring to a boil. Cook 2 minutes, then pour over sweet potato mixture.
3. Bake until bubbly and brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm.

Sounds very similar to what my mom makes. VERY yummy stuff and that's coming from someone who doesn't like sweet potatos!! tongue

It's like having dessert with your dinner instead of afterward.

That's very similar to one of our favorite Thanksgiving side dishes. ...but you got a couple of things I'm going to incorporate into my next run.
