2 med. sweet potatoes
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter
2 to 3 c. sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
3/4 to 1 c. (13 oz.) evaporated milk
2 tsp. vanilla
1 (9 inch) pastry pie shell, unbaked

Cook sweet potatoes in a little water in a tightly covered pan. Cool slightly, remove skins and mash well with butter so butter will melt. Mix sugar to taste, eggs, spices, vanilla and enough milk to make a smooth, creamy consistency. Pour into pie shell and bake in preheated 350 degree oven about 1 hour or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
