6 tablespoons (

butter, room temperature
2 large eggs
1
⁄4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1

If baking immediately after preparing,
preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat an
8-cup baking dish with cooking spray.
Cook sweet potatoes in large pot of
boiling water until tender, about 15

bowl and add butter. Mix on Speed 1 for
one minute, then increase to Speed 2
and beat until smooth. Add eggs, brown
sugar, spices, salt and pepper; beat on
Speed 1 to blend, about 30 seconds.
Transfer mixture to the prepared baking
dish. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover
and refrigerate.) Bake potatoes in the
preheated oven until they are slightly
puffed and beginning to brown around
the edges, about 25 to 30 minutes.
While potatoes bake, prepare the topping
by mixing the remaining ingredients in a
bowl. Sprinkle the topping evenly over
the potatoes and bake about 10 minutes
longer, until golden brown and crispy.
