Personal Notes:
This recipe is from Irene Anglin, from Mexia, Texas. This is a staple at the Prowell Thanksgiving dinners. I debated putting it under the dessert category, because it's so sweet and delicious. The Prowells make 2 pans-worth with different toppings so that everyone gets just what they want: some with nuts & coconut, some with marshmallows, some with just nuts.
