    My dad let me cook thanksgiving dinner for the first time. I have been cooking mostly my hole life, but I have never cooked a big thanksgiving dinner, but this year I did. I used this recipe for Sweet Potato Pie (minus the meringue and my father loved it. He told me not to change a thing. Yay!!!!

    EXCELLENT! One thing that scared me was when I was ready to add the milk I felt like the batter was a perfect consistancy but I added the milk anyway. Once I had added half of the 1 cup it got so soupy I panicked and thought I would dilute the flavor too much. I only added half a cup of milk and it tasted fantastic! I initially could not find the regular pie crusts so I bought the deep dish crusts. If I had not the batter would have been enough for 2 regular pie crusts but when using the deep dish it was enough but had enough left over to make some small tarts. I used my other pie crusts to make cris cross strips across my pie and it was beautiful as well as tasty. Paula Deen recipes are always a winner!

    This recipe was awesome. I substituted heavy whipping cream for milk and it certainly didn't hurt the tastiness of this pie.
    This is going into the dessert file for sure.

    Like the reviewer below I also used sweet condensed milk instead of regular milk and I used a 1/2 cup of brown sugar and a 1/2 cup of regular sugar. I also ended up with two pies not just one. I also used nutmeg instead of ginger. At first I thought the filling was soupy so I added a little more sweet potatoes to the filling. I didnt make the topping and the pie was delicious.

    This was one of the best sweet potato pies I have ever had. My husband also liked it, not as much as his mommas, but he said a close second so we will be keeping this recipe around.

    With a few minor changes this pie was FABULOUS! Based on other reviews I changed up a few things, I used condensed milk instead of regular, I substituted 1/2 a cup brown suger for 1/2 a cup of regular sugar and also added and extra 1/4 cup of pure sugar. I adeded nutmeg to tast about 1tablespoon. The pie was amazing and did not need any type of topping! Thanks Paula !
