    List of Ingredients




    3 medium white or orange sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered (about 1 pound)
    1/4 cup milk
    2 eggs, slightly beaten
    1 14-ounce can (1-1/4 cups) sweetened condensed milk
    2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    1 unbaked 9-inch pastry shell
    1 cup chopped hazelnuts (filberts)
    1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

    Recipe



    1. In a medium saucepan, cook potatoes, covered, in 2 cups boiling water about 30 minutes or until tender. Drain. Using a potato masher or an electric mixer, mash or beat potatoes until almost smooth (you should have about 11/2 cups). Add milk and beat until smooth.
    2. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. In a large bowl, combine eggs, sweetened condensed milk, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir in potato mixture. Turn mixture into pastry shell. In a small bowl, stir together hazelnuts, brown sugar, and melted butter. Sprinkle mixture evenly over pie.
    3. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake for 25 minutes; remove foil. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours before serving. Makes 10 servings
