Sweet Potato Pie in a Jar

As part of the tastemaker program, Foodbuzz and Simply Potatoes® supplied me with a coupon. I chose the mashed sweet potatoes because I wanted to use them in a dessert.

For this recipe all you need are eight 4-ounce jelly jars (I bought mine at Ace Hardware). Starting with Simply Potatoes® Mashed Sweet Potatoes, you can mix up this scrumptious holiday dessert in less than 10 minutes.

1 package Simply Potatoes® Mashed Sweet Potatoes
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 can (5 ounces) evaporated milk
1/3 cup Better’n Eggs®*
1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon ground pumpkin pie spice
1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust (from 15 ounce package)

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl whisk or stir together all ingredients except pie crust; mix until well blended.

2. Unroll pie crust; cut into circles that will fit inside the 4-ounce jelly jars. Press into the bottom and up the sides. Pour sweet potato mixture into jars. Bake 20 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely. Serve immediately or refrigerate.

3. Add fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

*Substitute 1 whole egg

What a cute little idea. Did you wash out those ACE hardware jars first? ;)

Sarah Catherine, yes I washed the jars. This is probably weird but I kind of enjoy washing dishes. I have a perfectly good dish washer but I wash most of my dishes by hand.
