These sound like a great idea for our office party! Recipe from Aaron McCargo, Jr from Big Daddy's House. Ingredients:
24 pre-made mini pie crusts |
oil, for pans |
1 (12 ounce) can yams or 1 (12 ounce) can sweet potatoes |
2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened |
2 eggs |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1/4 cup caramel sauce |
6 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/4 cup heavy cream |
1/2 cup powdered sugar |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Put the pre-made mini shells inside a greased 24-count mini muffin pan.
3. In a large bowl add the yams, cream cheese, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, brown sugar and caramel sauce. Beat with a hand-held electric mixer until well combined. Dollop 2 to 3 tablespoons of the pie mixture into each shell. Bake until the custard sets, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

5. Add the cream cheese, cream, sugar and cinnamon to a large bowl. Using a hand-held electric mixer, beat the cream cheese mixture until you reach a frosting consistency.
