Emma's Sweet Potato Cheese Cake Pie

[Guest guest]

Greetings!

 

I keep referring to Emma as my nanny, because she is. I feel bad doing

so because she is much more than that. She is a new found friend and a

Godsend to my family, without whom I would have surely lost my mind by

now. She is also a wonderful cook.

Here is a recipe that Emma gave me, and oversaw me through while I made

it :smiles:

 

 

3 fresh sweet potatoes

cream cheese ( 16 oz and put one quarter of that to the side)

1 1/3 cups brown sugar

1 stick of butter ( reluctantly I did not substitute for margarine, as

Emma threatened my life)

pinch of nutmeg

2 pinches cinnamon

2 eggs (again, the threats)

evaporated milk (Emma says only use carnation, so that is what I used)

2 graham cracker crusts ( Emma said the premade kind was fine, so that

is what I used)

powdered sugar

 

bake potatoes until tender, then cool until warm.

Take one potato, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and two eggs, and butter, and

blend until smooth.

Add cream cheese and potatoes, gradually blending until almost a whipped

cream consistency.

Add one half the can of evaporated milk, and continue to mix.

Spoon into crusts.

 

take two tablespoons of evaporated milk with the one quarter cup of

cream cheese and two tablespoons powdered sugar, and add to bowl.

Microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir until smooth. Place inside of a

plastic storage bag with one corner cut off. make lines on pie and pull

back and forth with toothpicks, or make a design. (this was the best

part)

bake at 350 for about 25-30 minutes.

 

I guarantee that you will enjoy this pie, even if you don't enjoy sweet

potatoes!
