Sweet Potato Pocket Pies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 large sweet potatoes
    1/4 lb butter, softened
    1/2 cup light brown sugar
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon cinnamon
    1 tablespoon nutmeg
    1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
    1 cup water
    2 ready-made pie crusts
Preparation
    Wash potatoes and leave peelings on.
    Place in pot, cover with water, bring to a boil, boil until slightly tender, about 10-15 minutes.
    Remove from heat and water, let cool 30 minutes.
    Start to preheat oven to 375\u00b0F.
    Remove peelings with edge of spoon, either thinly slice or mash potatoes with backside of a large spoon.
    Spray a regular cupcake pan with non stick spray for baking.
    Line each cupcake hole with pie crust (use a round cookie cutter or upside down glass to cut the dough in circle).
    Fill pasty to 1/4 inch of top with slices or mashed potato.
    Combine sugar, spices, evaporated milk and water in a jar with a lid. Shake to blend well and cover sweet potatoes with the blend. Place a \"dollop\" of butter (about 2 teaspoons) on top of each pie.
    Bake for 40 minutes at 375\u00b0F.
