    This recipe is missing a few key ingredients that my mother uses! Her sweet potato pie is legend, has a lot more depth and uses a few more spices and flavorings. At 76, she gives you the evil eye when you ask her for the recipe!

    I liked this recipe, and got compliments on it, but the pie filling was a little to watery for my taste. The crust got soggy pretty quickly after cutting into the pie. I did bake the potatoes instead of boiling them... maybe I'll try using a thicker milk like others have suggested (heavy cream, etc.. It did take much longer than the 45 mins stated in the recipe for this pie to set. The meringue was a beautiful touch, but it didn't look that great the next day when going back for seconds. I'm not sure what happened, but the taste of this pie makes it worth trying again.

    I tried to make this recipe for the first the first time. However, I made a mistake and picked up a graham cracker crust instead of a regular pie crust. So I decided to make the pie with graham crackers crust. It turned out perfect. I would have to say I was very proud because it tasted so amazing. Thank you for an amazing recipe. My family & friends enjoyed the sweet potato pie with a little change I made to the recipe. Hehe!

    WARNING! This recipe can result in marital issues!!

    My wife is a great cook and her pumpkin pies are a specialty of hers; but my first time baking this pie, even with an 80% successful meringue attempt, is better than her pumpkin pie =:-o Fortunately for our marriage, even she agreed it was better than her pumpkin pie!

    I doubled the spice, used half and half instead of milk and of course added bourbon AND vanilla.
    Next time, an extra couple of minutes with the beaters to get that meringue right....
