Steps:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 13-inch round about 1/8 inch thick. Brush off excess flour. Wrap the dough around the rolling pin, and lift it over a 9-inch pie plate. Line the pan with the dough, pressing it into the sides. Trim dough, leaving about 1/4 inch overhang all around; fold dough under to form a rim. Crimp edge with a fork. Cover with plastic wrap, and chill in refrigerator at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in center. Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper, pressing into corners, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges begin to turn brown, 15 minutes. Remove pie weights, and bake 8 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Combine sweet potatoes and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth. Add 1/2 cup brown sugar, maple syrup, bourbon (if using), vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined. Add half-and-half, 1 egg, and the egg yolk; mix until smooth.
- Sprinkle the remaining 3 tablespoons brown sugar and the chopped pecans evenly over bottom of prepared crust. Pour in filling. In a small bowl, combine remaining egg and cream; brush this egg wash evenly over edge of crust. Return to oven; bake until set, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve with bourbon whipped cream.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE PIE
This showstopping dessert, which is inspired by the classic Thanksgiving side dish, is really a pie baked in a springform pan. (Don't try it in a pie pan because the filling will likely overflow.) What makes this dessert a winner is the textural contrast between the creamy sweet potato filling, the crisp pecan crust and the gooey marshmallow topping. Here are a few tips for best results: Roast the sweet potatoes instead of boiling them because it enhances their flavor, and use smaller sweet potatoes because they are naturally sweeter than larger varieties. Also, it may seem fussy, but chilling the cooked potatoes, then aggressively whipping them aerates them, resulting in a silkier texture. Once baked and cooled, refrigerate the pie until right before it's time to serve.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment; set aside.
- Using the tines of a fork, carefully poke holes into the surface of each sweet potato. Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and bake until fork-tender and the skins are crisp, 45 to 50 minutes. Lower the oven to 350 degrees, remove the sweet potatoes and let sit until cool enough to handle, 15 to 20 minutes. Peel them, discarding the skins, and transfer peeled sweet potatoes into a large bowl; mash until creamy (you should have about 2 generous cups). Place the bowl into the refrigerator to chill while you make the crust.
- Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with a piece of parchment. In a food processor, combine the pecans, 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt; blend on high until the mixture looks like coarse bread crumbs, about 20 seconds. Sprinkle the mixture into the bottom of the pan and press down firmly to compact the crust. (If using a pie plate, press up the sides as well.) Bake until deep golden brown and fragrant, 18 to 20 minutes. Let the crust cool while you make the filling.
- Lower the oven to 325 degrees. Into a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the chilled potatoes and beat on medium for 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl and beater as you go. Add the remaining 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt, along with the cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Beat on medium speed to combine for 2 to 3 minutes, again stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl and beater as you go. Reduce the speed to low and add the evaporated milk and vanilla, beating until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until fully incorporated, then turn the speed to medium-high and beat for another 45 seconds before pouring the mixture into the cooled crust. Set the pie on top of a baking sheet, then bake until set around the edges but just slightly jiggly in the center, 60 to 70 minutes.
- Allow the pie to cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then carefully arrange the marshmallows on top in an even layer. (If you set the marshmallows on the hot pie as soon as it comes out of the oven, they'll melt into a flat layer. Allowing the pie to cool a bit first helps them retain their shape.) Once the pie cools to room temperature, cover it with foil and transfer it to the fridge to chill, at least 4 hours or up to 2 days.
- When ready to serve, heat the broiler and position an oven rack close to the broiler. Place the pie under the broiler until marshmallows are browned in spots, 1 to 3 minutes, depending on how charred you prefer your marshmallows, watching closely. Remove from the oven and let the pie rest for 10 minutes to allow the marshmallows to set and harden before running a knife around the edges of the pan and releasing the ring. Slice and serve immediately.
SWEET POTATO PIE
This mildly-sweet version of the classic Southern pie has a crisp crust and a filling that's surprisingly light. It's rich with egg and boldly spiced with nutmeg, but as fluffy as chiffon (a quality owed to the baking powder in the filling). This means you'll probably have room for two (or three) pieces. (Don't let making your own pie crust intimidate you: our pie guide has everything you need to know.)

PAUL PRUDHOMME'S SWEET POTATO PECAN PIE
This recipe came to The Times in 1983 from Paul Prudhomme, the chef who helped put the cooking of Louisiana on the American culinary map. Like its traditional pecan pie cousin, this is very sweet, so serve it with a little Chantilly cream on top.
