Down Home Sweet Potato Pie

Ingredients:
4 large sweet potatoes
2 cups sugar
1 stick butter
1 pinch cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg
1 pie crust
1/2 cup milk

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 F.

Boil sweet potatoes until tender, but firm. (The sweet potatoes should not be falling apart.) Remove from hot water and cool. Once cooled, peel the skin from the sweet potatoes.

Put the peeled sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl and mash them thoroughly with a potato masher. Melt the butter and pour it - with the other ingredients - in the bowl of potatoes. Stir until well mixed.

Pour the potatoes mixture into a prepared pie crust and bake in 375 F oven for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry.
