Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Lightly grease a 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed sweet potatoes, melted butter, milk, sugar, eggs and vanilla extract. I use a hand mixer and blend at low speed until ingredients are blended, but not too smooth. Do not overblend/mix. 20-30 seconds usually does the trick.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the light brown sugar and flour and cut in the 1/3 cup of butter. This mixture should be moist, but crumbly. Mix in the pecans with your hands.
Pour the casserole mixture from the large bowl into the 9x13 baking dish, then sprinkle the pecan topping entirely over that.
Bake on center rack for 30 minutes. Let set for 10 minutes then serve.
