Mix yams w\/ butter, sugar, eggs, milk and vanilla. Pour into 9 x 9 pan. Put cream in sauce pan. Simmer then add brown sugar. Cook over medium heat to soft ball stage. (on a candy thermometer it will say what temp is soft ball) Remove from heat. Beat in melted butter and pecans. Pour over sweet potatoes. Bake until they&#8217;re hot and top bubbles.<\/p>\n<p>If I remember correctly, I usually do 8 or 9 large yams, but I make the same amount of the topping. Then I cook it in a 9 x 13 pan.<\/p>\n<p>Have fun. For anyone else out there who needs a way to disguise dessert as vegetables, this is an awful good way of doing it.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Cornell<\/p>\n<p>__________________<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Enjoy!
