Yam Souffle

Yams:
3 c. cooked, mashed yams (boil—until soft—early so they can cool; peel off skin; cool)
1/2 c. sugar
1 cube melted butter
2 beaten eggs
1 t. vanilla
1/3 c. milk

Topping:
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. flour
1 c. chopped nuts
3 T. butter

Mix the yam ingredients and put into buttered 9x9 pan. Mix the topping ingredients until crumbly. Sprinkle on top. Top with more nuts, if desired. Bake at 350º for 30-40 minutes.

Note from e: This comes from the mom of e and e, and she always doubles (or sometimes triples!) this recipe (enough to fill a 9x13), but it should be plenty for four unless you want leftovers. I did this for my in-laws last year and they loved it. I'm pretty sure I just doubled it then.
