Filling
Cook potatoes separately until they are tender. Cook on the stove or place in the microwave for 5 minutes
Beat the potatoes to remove the strings. The strings will stick to the beater. Rinse the beater off.
Add sugar and butter to the sweet potatoes and beat until lumps disappear
Add nutmeg, milk, vanilla, and eggs to the potato mixture . Mix well then pour into the crust.
Cook at 325 degrees until firm and done which is usually about 40 minutes. Crust will be light brown and the potatoes will firm more as it cools.
Serve with whipped cream or ice cream. Good cold or heated up. Serves up to 20 people if they get a healthy serving.
