THE BEST SWEET POTATO PIE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix egg yolk with 1/4 cup ice water; set aside. Place flour, sugar and salt in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add shortening and butter; pulse until shortening and butter are the size of peas. While pulsing, add egg yolk mixture. Add just enough of remaining ice water to form moist crumbs. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; wrap and refrigerate 1 hour or overnight. , Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub sweet potatoes; place in a 13x9-in. baking pan with 1-1/2 cups water. Bake until tender, 45-50 minutes. Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface, roll 1 disk of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Roll remaining disk to 1/8-in. thickness; cut into desired shapes with floured 1-in. cookie cutters. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate crust and cutouts for at least 30 minutes., Peel potatoes when they are cool enough to handle; place in a food processor. Pulse to coarsely mash. Add brown sugar and the next 8 ingredients; blend until smooth. Pour filling into chilled crust. Bake on lowest oven rack 15 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350°; bake until center is just set, 20-25 minutes. Bake crust cutouts on an upper oven rack until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack; decorate pie with cutouts and toppings as desired.

SWEET POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Prepare and roll out the pie crust. Transfer it to a standard 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and fold under themselves before crimping with your fingers or a fork. Cover the crust with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• To prepare the filling, scrub and peel the sweet potatoes. Then, dice into large, 3-inch chunks.
• Place chunks in a large pot and cover with cool water. Bring the pot to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium. Let simmer until the potatoes are tender and pierce easily with a thin knife, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes into a colander, transfer back into the pot, and mash. Measure out 2 cups, which is the amount that you need for the pie, and reserve any extra for another recipe.
• To the same pot, add the brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, salt, butter, and 5 ounces (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) of the evaporated milk. Place the pot on the stove and cook on low, for about 5 minutes, mashing the potatoes further as they cook.
• To make the silkiest possible pie, use an immersion blender to puree until totally smooth; you may also transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor. Once the mixture is smooth and smells very fragrant, remove from the heat and let cool in the pot.
• While the sweet potato mixture cools, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (5 ounces) evaporated milk, granulated sugar, eggs, bourbon, and vanilla extract, in a separate bowl, until totally smooth. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the warm sweet potato mixture and stir until evenly and smoothly combined.
• Remove the crust from the refrigerator, pour the prepared filling into the pie crust, and then gently place the pie dish on a baking sheet. Bake the pie for 10 minutes at 375 degrees F, then reduce the heat to 325 degrees F and continue baking until cooked through; about 50 minutes. Check the pie periodically. If the crust is browning more quickly than you would like, shield it, then continue baking as directed. When the pie is ready, remove, and let cool completely.*
• Meanwhile, heat a wide skillet over medium-low heat. Once the pan is heated, add the coconut in an even layer. Continually stir and fold over the coconut in the pan so that it cooks evenly and is a light, toasty brown; 6 to 8 minutes. Watch the pan attentively to prevent burning, then remove coconut immediately to a plate once ready. Let cool.
• Finally, prepare the marshmallow cream topping. Place the cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.** Begin beating on low speed, then slowly increase the speed to high, beating just until soft peaks form. Add the marshmallow creme and vanilla. Beat on high, scraping down the sides of the mixer a few times, until a loose whipped cream forms. The cream should be harder than soft peaks but not as stiff as hard peaks.
• Serve the pie at room temperature, with the marshmallow whipped cream dolloped generously on top, and sprinkled with toasted coconut.
