We always had it for the holidays. This year will be no different.Thanks, Mopmma for your wonderful recipe.

Sweet Potato Pie

4 eggs, separated
2 cups sugar
3 cups cooked, mashed sweet potatoes
1/2 cup softened margarine or butter
2 cups milk
2 teaspoons Watkins vanilla extract
1 teaspoon Watkins ground nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoons Watkins ground cinnamon
2 (9 inch) unbaked pie shells
Beat egg yolks until thick. Gradually add sugar; mix well. Add next 6 ingredients and mix well. Beat room temperature egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into sweet potato mixture. Pour into pie shells and bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until set.
