If having too much leftover pie around is a problem in your household, we've got a solution! We've scaled down sweet potato pie so you can make just enough for two. Substitute an equal amount of pumpkin puree for the sweet potato if you like.

Steps:
- For the crust: Put a small baking sheet on a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 375 degrees F. Process the flour, butter, granulated and confectioners' sugars and salt in a food processor until the mixture resembles wet crumbs and holds together when squeezed in your palm, about 2 minutes (this takes longer than seems necessary, but be patient). Divide the mixture evenly between 2 disposable 5-inch pie tins, and press the dough very firmly into the bottoms and up the sides, making sure to press it into the corners very well. Smooth and flatten the tops with your fingers or the back of a small spoon.
- Bake the crusts on the hot baking sheet until the bottom and sides are golden brown (probably more in some spots than in others), about 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
- For the filling: Whisk together the eggs, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and allspice in a medium bowl. Whisk in the sweet potato and then the melted butter.
- Mound the filling in the pie shells, and bake until puffed and the centers still look slightly wet but not loose, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
- If using marshmallows: Right before serving, preheat the broiler. Pile 1/4 cup mini marshmallows in the center of each pie, and broil until the marshmallows are bubbling and well browned, 30 to 40 seconds. Serve immediately.
- If not using marshmallows: Dollop each pie with some whipped cream, and serve.

Steps:
- Prick sweet potato all over with a fork. Place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, turning once, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Peel and mash with a fork.
- Sift whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Rub in cubed butter with your fingers until mixture is the consistency of fine crumbs. Mix in mashed sweet potato, orange juice, and orange zest until dough comes together. Gather dough into a ball; freeze for 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a small baking sheet.
- Divide chilled dough into 2 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball; pat gently to form a 2-inch round. Place rounds on the baking sheet.
- Mix 1/2 teaspoon white sugar and 1 pinch cinnamon together in a bowl. Sprinkle over the shortcake rounds.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer shortcakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Mix 1 teaspoon water and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth.
- Combine strawberries, 1/4 cup water, and 2 tablespoons white sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; stir. Simmer until strawberries start to break down, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat; stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook until strawberry sauce is slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
- Whisk farmers cheese, sour cream, and confectioners' sugar together in a bowl to make cream.
- Cut each shortcake in half. Spoon cream mixture over the bottom halves; cover with top halves. Serve strawberry sauce on top.

SMALL-BATCH SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE
This recipe has all the flavors of the Thanksgiving classic, just in smaller form. Honey, I shrunk the sweet potato casserole! Mini marshmallows ensure you get lots of charred edges, which are pretty much the best part of sweet potato casserole anyhow. For ease, you can assemble the ramekins on a baking sheet when toasting the marshmallows.

Steps:
- Combine the sweet potatoes, half-and-half, butter, brown sugar, nutmeg if using and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, covered and stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes begin to break down, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, covered, stirring occasionally and breaking up the pieces as you stir, until the sweet potatoes are completely tender and have almost entirely fallen apart, another 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, position an oven rack in the upper-third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
- Add the cream cheese to the saucepan. Mix with a handheld mixer until the cream cheese is fully incorporated and the sweet potatoes are smooth.
- Use a spatula to transfer 1 cup of the sweet potato mixture to each of four 1-cup ramekins. Top each ramekin with a 1/3 cup of the mini marshmallows. Bake until the marshmallows are puffed and browned, about 5 minutes.
SWEET POTATO FOR TWO
Sweet potatoes are so underrated. They are so good for you and packed with fiber. I got tired of not being able to find a sweet potato recipe that is good for you and for 2 people. So I made this one night and it was delicious. Its easy and delicious. Goes great with seasoned baked chicken.
