1 cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt

Directions:
Combine the topping mixture in a small bowl and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350º. Bake sweet potatoes until fork tender. Once cool enough to handle, peel back the skin and combine sweet potatoes, sugar, salt, vanilla, eggs and butter in a large mixing bowl. Beat thoroughly with a hand mixer to increase the fluffiness of the sweet potato mixture.

Add potato mixture to casserole dish and bake for 30 minutes at 350º. (At this point, dish can be covered and refrigerated if you're making this ahead.)

Once ready to cook, sprinkle the surface of the sweet potato mixture evenly with the topping mixture and return to oven for 10 minutes. Allow to set at least 10 minutes before serving.

The brown sugar and pecan crust should be slightly browned and crunchy.
