How To Make salted butterscotch sweet potato pie
-
Step 1Heat cane sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir continuously until sugar begins to melt. Continue stirring until the sugar melts completely, begins to darken, and all the chunks are dissolved, about 10 minutes.

Step 2Stop stirring and continue to cook until the sugar begins to smoke and turns a dark shade of amber, 3 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and wait 30 seconds.

Step 3Whisk in margarine until melted and combined. Slowly pour in heavy cream, butterscotch ice cream topping and sprinkle in sea salt and stir to combine.
-
Step 4Transfer sauce to a large jar and cool completely. Set aside.
-
Step 5Spoon the salted butterscotch sauce all over the pie crust. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
-
Step 6Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 30 minutes; Drain.
-
Step 7Peel the potatoes and place in a large bowl and mashed with a potato masher.
-
Step 8Beat margarine, cream cheese, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, eggs and fat free milk together with a fork for 5 minutes until blended.
-
Step 9Pour half the sweet potato mixture into the prepared pie crust. Spread the salted butterscotch sauce on top and continue to pour in the remaining sweet potato mixture.
-
Step 10Bake in preheated oven 45 minutes, or until the pie is set. Cool completely. Drizzle with salted butterscotch sauce.
