      Directions

      Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

      Peel the sweet potatoes and add the flesh to a bowl. Beat in the butter using a hand mixer or a stand mixer with the whisk attachment until well combined. Beat in the cream cheese, brown sugar and eggs, adding one at a time. Taste and add salt and pepper as necessary.

      For the topping: Mix together the brown sugar, pecans, flour, butter and bacon in a separate bowl until it looks crumbly.

      Add the mixture to a deep-dish pie plate and bake until puffed and golden, 30 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving (the souffle will fall slightly).

        really terrific recipe - will become part of my Thanksgiving table - everyone loved this!!! I followed this pretty much exactly. Subbed yams for sweet potatoes, added a few tablespoons of whole milk (it looked a touch too thick after all the liquid was added. Also, made half the topping without bacon and the other half with bacon so it would be sure to appeal to all tastes ( i preferred the side without bacon just because i prefer sweet to salty sweet.
