are you using a springform pan, or just a regular pie plate? we made the mistake of using a regular pie plate last year and it didn't all fit!! we bought a springform pan for this year.

No I used a regular pie plate.  But that is because I made it with a real crust instead of the grahm cracker crust. Did the pecan topping stay on the top for you or sink to the middle?

I used a hand mixer for the filling to get it nice and smooth, yams instead of sweet potato (I don't know if that makes a difference), and let both mixes sit for about half an hour before I filled the pie crust. I filled the crust about 2/3 of the way with the filling and then very carefully spooned the pecan mix on the top of that. It stayed separate, but I think I actually like the flavor more when they are mixed together.
