This casserole was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using less sugar in the recipe.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is very subtle and it really compliments the sweet potatoes. This casserole is a keeper!

This was so easy to make and it turned out delicious. I used canned sweet potatoes to save time and it still came out great. My family loved it!
