Sweet potato pie.... Do you good when you make it this way ...
1 - 10 inch pie crust
2 3/4 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar, or less to taste
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/3 cup Myers rum
2 large eggs
1 (7 ounce) can evaporated milk (or re-constitute non-instant milk, making it thick)
pinch of orange peel (dried)
Preheat oven to 300 degrees (f)
Beat the sweet potatoes and butter with an electric mixer until smooth, add sugar, nutmeg and rum, and continue beating until incorporated.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add milk, beating continuously. Stir in the orange peel.
Transfer filling to the pie crust, and smooth the top with a spoon.
Bake until pie is set in the center and lightly brown, about 40 minutes
