Oklahoma country music star and actress Reba McEntire has just the recipe for Thursday's Thanksgiving dinner.

The star of "Malibu Country" provided Good Housekeeping magazine with her recipe for Praline Sweet Potato Casserole.

The dish, made with canned sweet potatoes, is down-home comfort food and super-easy to make. The recipe is included below.

Also, watch the Chockie native's situation comedy "Malibu Country" at 7:31 p.m. Friday on ABC, channel 8.

In this week's episode, Reba is angered when ex-husband Bobby arrives for Cash's birthday and gives him a brand new sports car, knowing full well that Reba wanted their son to earn a car by working for it and not by entitlement.

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
1 can (40 oz.) sweet potatoes, drained
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 Tbsp. margarine, melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
2 large eggs

Topping:
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup pecans, chopped
3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp. margarine, melted

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease shallow 1 1/2-quart casserole. In bowl, mash sweet potatoes; stir in granulated sugar, margarine, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and eggs. Spoon into prepared casserole.

Mix topping ingredients; sprinkle on potato mixture. Bake 30 minutes. Serves 6.

Is it Reba's recipe or is it Reba's mother's recipe?
The magazine promoted it as Reba's recipe. It didn't mention her Mom. But I can't wait to try it!

This is a good recipe. It is very close to what my mother used to make.

Rita Sherrow grew up with TV. Yes, it was the ever-present “sister” from another techno mother. At first look, it was instant "Like." From then on, the TV had to be on in every room while she studied, elementary school through college. An Air Force brat, she attended school in three states (Oklahoma, Montana and Georgia) and two foreign countries (Germany and Bermuda) and graduated from Broken Arrow High School and the University of Tulsa with a degree in journalism/advertising. She first interned in the advertising world but, when a J-School professor (who also covered politics for the Tulsa World) offered her an internship at the newspaper, she took him up on it. The rest is history. She has served as bridal editor, senior features writer for the women’s section, food editor and is television editor of the Tulsa World. In addition to writing about TV shows and interviewing the stars for “Scene” stories, she also writes a TV column for Weekend and produces the Sunday TV World listings magazine.
