Happy Turkey Day Eve!!!!

Hello everyone..  I hope everyone is well..  I had a fabulous day today,  work was good..  went by pretty fast..  then came home and made 3 pies,  pumpkin, sweet potato and apple..  they are all cooling on the counter and the girls and I are watching Home For The Holidays!!   such a good movie..  I love this movie.. 

Sweet Potato Pie

2 roasted sweet potatos
1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
2 Tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla
1 can evaporated milk
1 unbaked pie crust,  deep dish

Place roasted potatoes in mixing bowl,  mash with a potato masher or in a mixer,  add the sugar and mix well.  Add eggs 1 at a time,  then the vanilla.  Pour the melted butter in slowly and then add the can of evaporated milk.  Mix well and pour into crust.  Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes,  then lower heat to 350 degrees and cook another 30 to 45 minutes,  checking after 30. 

To prevent the crust from shrinking in the oven..  after you roll it out and put it in the pie place,  place the plate in the freezer or refrigerator for 15 minutes or so..  a chilled crust shrinks less than a room temp one.
