Southern Comfort Sweet Potato Pie

Sweet Potato Filling


2 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes
1 cup Imperial Sugar/Dixie Crystals granulated sugar
2 TBSP melted butter
1 small can (5oz.) evaporated milk
1-2 TBSP Southern Comfort
Pinch salt
½ tsp. Ground cinnamon
¼ tsp. Ground nutmeg
¼ tsp. Ground allspice
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp. Vanilla extract

Combine the mashed sweet potatoes with the sugar until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and mix on a low speed setting until blended. Do not whip. I just mixed by hand, and you can tell by looking at the picture as there looks like bits of mashed sweet potato, in the mix. :-)

Use your favorite pastry crust recipe, then pour in filling and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

I used a butter crust recipe, used the left-over dough to make the heart cut outs, which I sprinkled with a bit of sugar before baking. Also had enough dough to wrap around olives and baked them too. We had those for nibbles with wine before dinner last night.




Happy Thanksgiving.
