Sweet Potato Pie I
SUBMITTED BY: Joyce Waits
"This recipe was shared with me by a special friend in Atlanta, Ga. It has long
been a favorite, and everyone who tastes it says it is the best they have ever
had."
Original recipe yield:
1 - 9 inch pie
PREP TIME 30 Min
COOK TIME 1 Hr 50 Min
READY IN 2 Hrs 20 Min
INGREDIENTS
* 1 (1 pound) sweet potato
* 1/2 cup butter, softened
* 1 cup white sugar
* 1/2 cup milk
* 2 eggs
* 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
DIRECTIONS
1. Boil sweet potato whole in skin for 40 to 50 minutes, or until done.
Run cold water over the sweet potato, and remove the skin.
2. Break apart sweet potato in a bowl. Add butter, and mix well with
mixer. Stir in sugar, milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. Beat on medium
speed until mixture is smooth. Pour filling into an unbaked pie crust.

knife inserted in center comes out clean. Pie will puff up like a souffle, and
then will sink down as it cools.
