Sweet Potato Pie With Jack Daniels - Makes 2 Pies
- 4 -5 large sweet potatoes
- 2/3 cup butter, softened to room temp (you can use margine, but why mess with Mother Nature?)
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 (15 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk (I use Eagle Brand, but do NOT substitute evaporated milk!!!)
- 3 ounces Jack Daniels Whiskey (that's 2 shots)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 deep dish pie shells
- whipped cream (optional)
- Pop the sweet taters in the microwave until they are soft inside and easily pierced with a knife.
- Put them aside and allow them to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Put the eggs in a large bowl and beat them lightly.
- Add the Eagle Brand, the butter, the vanilla, and the salt.
- Combine well.
- By this time the potatoes should be cool enough to touch. The peel should easily come off the potatoes. (I have found this easier that peeling, cubing, and boiling.).
- Add the potatoes to the Eagle Brand liquids.
- Mash well until everything is well mixed and smooth.
- Pour into the 2 deep dish pie crusts.
- Bake 55 minutes or until a knife inserted into the middle comes up clean.
- Serve with whipped cream if desired.
- Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy!
