Golden Corral Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe

I’ve always believed the secret to a great sweet potato casserole is balancing the sweet and savory elements just right.
When it comes to mastering Golden Corral's version, it's all about the rich blend of sweet potatoes, vanilla, and cinnamon mixed with a crunchy pecan topping.
Make sure to let the sweet potatoes cool slightly after boiling before peeling - it makes the process much easier and helps the ingredients blend smoothly.
For an extra touch, consider adding a dash of nutmeg to the mix—it adds a surprising depth to the flavor profile that I just adore.
