Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into chunks. Place them in a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender, then drain and let cool slightly.
Mash the cooked sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl until smooth. You can use a potato masher or a hand mixer for a finer texture.
Add 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter, granulated sugar, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
To make the streusel topping, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and chopped pecans in a medium bowl. Cut in 1/4 cup of unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the sweet potato mixture.
Bake the soufflé in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this warm and comforting dish!
