For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of melted butter. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until it turns a nutty brown and emits a fragrant aroma. Let it cool slightly before adding to the sweet potato mixture. If using canned sweet potatoes, drain them well and reduce the granulated sugar by 1/4 cup, as canned sweet potatoes are often packed in syrup. To prevent the cornflake topping from burning, you can tent the casserole with foil during the last 5 minutes of baking. Feel free to experiment with other nuts, such as walnuts or almonds, in the topping. You can also add a pinch of salt to the topping to enhance the sweetness. This casserole can be prepared a day ahead. Assemble the casserole but do not add the topping. Cover and refrigerate. Add the topping just before baking.
