How To Make later, sweet tater! pecan bars

• 1

  CRUST
• 2

  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, stir together the butter & 2 Tbls sugar. Stir in cracker crumbe and 2 Tbls of finely chopped pecans.
• 4

  Once combined, press into the bottom of a lightly greased (butter-flavored PAM is great!) 8x8x2 inch baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Watch carefully!
• 5

  Set the crust aside and let cool to the touch.
• 6

  FILLING
• 7

  In a medium bowl, stir together the egg, mashed sweet potatoes and sour cream.
• 8

  Stir in the 1/4 Cup sugar, all of the flour and the pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
• 9

  Add milk slowly, stirring until smooth. (I do this to keep it from splashing out of the bowl.)
• 10

  Pour Sweet potato mix evenly over the crust and bake @ 350 degrees F for about 25 minutes or until an inserted knife comes clean.
• 11

  Immediately sprinkle the remaining chopped nuts and press lightly into filling. Cool completely in the pan then chill.
