Ruth's Chris Sweet Potato Casserole

 My kitchen manager, Paula, told me that this was her go to recipe for sweet potato casserole. Now, I am not a huge sweet potato girl but want to make them for the two people in the house who are, Aaron and Abby. This was super yummy. It was one of the things that I hit up for seconds on Thanksgiving dinner today. Bonus, I was able to use some of the leftover roasted sweet potatoes from Roadhouse, so I didn't have to cook them!
