Ingredients

1 cup pecans
1/2 cup bourbon whiskey
1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick pieces
1/2 cup water
2 eggs
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/3 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 cup whipping cream, whipped
1 crust from 1 package (12 oz) frozen Pillsbury™ Deep Dish Pie Crusts (2 Count)

Instructions

Step
1

In small bowl, mix pecans and bourbon. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
Step
2

Heat oven to 375°F. In 13x9-inch ungreased baking dish, place sweet potatoes and water; cover with foil. Bake about 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain water; cool sweet potatoes 10 minutes.
Step
3

Drain pecans, reserving bourbon. In large bowl, mash sweet potatoes; add eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, salt, cinnamon, ginger and reserved bourbon. Mix well. Gradually stir in 1/3 cup whipping cream, scraping bowl after each addition. Mix 1 minute longer. (Sweet potatoes have a coarse texture, so there will be some small lumps.)
Step
4

Pour filling into frozen pie crust; sprinkle with pecans. Bake about 45 minutes or until filling puffs and is lightly browned and knife inserted in center comes out clean.
Step
5

Cool completely, about 3 hours. Serve with whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pie.
