As Withm pointed out, "receipt" is the older term for what we now call a "recipe." So, Suzieq, I thought you were just choosing to use more traditional language--very cool.
I don't know anything about the etymology of those words, but it may be that they were called receipts because they were received--as in recipes handed down from mothers and grandmothers and shared with neighbors, etc. Not sure how it morphed into recipe.

I had to bump up this thread to thank BadJuJu for her recipe! I made the sweet potato souffle she shared and it was a big hit!
I'm normally not a fan of sweet sweet potato things (I love them roasted with garlic or baked into 'fries' with salt and pepper) but this recipe was really good. I skipped the marshmallows and everyone in my family really enjoyed it.
THANK YOU!!
Oh, and for anyone else thinking of trying this, cut the recipe in half unless you are baking for an army...it made a ton!
