"missy's" Sweet Potato Casserole

This is the recipe I have been using for years, and I am putting it here for safekeeping. I was making it this morning for Thanksgiving and noticed that my copy is starting to get soiled. This is so good, you could almost eat it for dessert.

Ingredients

• 3  cups  cooked sweet potatoes (I use a 40 oz. can of Bruce's, drained)

• 1⁄3 cup butter (melted)
• 2  eggs (beaten) or 3  egg whites

6. Sprinkle topping over the sweet potato mixture.
7. Bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until the casserole gets brown and bubbly.
