It just isn't a fall holiday without a sinful sweet potato casserole. Forget recipes that just season mashed sweet potatoes with sugar and spice before baking. This recipe is unlike any other sweet potato casserole you have ever had. Fresh sweet potatoes are sliced and layered with salty pancetta bacon and porcini mushrooms, leeks and generous amounts of cheese. If that wasn't enough, these sweet potatoes are topped with a thick white sauce and baked to a golden brown beauty! This savory sweet potato casseChef
