    Made this for Thanksgiving. I cut the white sugar by 1/3 (was still very sweet) and browned some marshmallows on top. It was a hit! Doubling recipe? Double cooking time and reduce temperature by 15*. Add marshmallows if using and return to oven to brown.Will make again next year! - 12/1/13

    I added a little nutmeg and cinnamon and used whole pecans. It was a hit at my Easter dinner - 4/16/17

    simple and tasty. I just used pecans on top, without mixing them with anything and it came out good. next time I might make it a little less sweet, too. - 8/28/11
