Southern Comfort Sweet Potatoes

I use this in my Mostly Make Ahead Thanksgiving Dinner

Southern Comfort Sweet Potatoes

2.5 lbs sweet potatoes, cooked soft, peeled and chopped(I peel and roast them)
(or 2-29oz cans, drained and rinsed)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup orange juice
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup Southern Comfort liqueur
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup light brown sugar

edit
I also like to sprinkle on about 1/2 cup mini marshmallows before the pecans and brown sugar!

DIRECTIONS

Place sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Mix in the butter, cinnamon, orange juice, eggs, salt, and liqueur. Transfer to a 2 quart casserole dish. Mix the pecans and brown sugar in a small bowl, and sprinkle evenly over the sweet potato mixture

Heat at 350 for approx 30-45 mins..until bubbly
