Sweet Potato Casserole

This is a great recipe coming from someone who did not like Sweet Potatoes until I was forced to try these. I don't even like pecans! They are always a hit and you will not take home any leftovers.

3 cups cooked sweet potatoes (I always use the canned)
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 stick of margarine, melted
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 cup pecans
1/3 stick margarine, melted

Mash the sweet potatoes. Add sugar, eggs, salt, margarine, milk and vanilla. Mix well. Put in shallow 1 1/2 quart baking dish. Mix topping. Spread over sweet potatoes, mine always seems to be a little thicker than a spread. Bake at 325 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
