Grilled Sweet Potato S'more Pies
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped pecan pieces
- 2 tablespoons Bourbon whiskey or dark rum
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 large egg
- 6 (6-inch) pie crusts
- 3 chocolate bars
- 1 cup mini-marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons softened butter
Directions
- Preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
- Place the sweet potatoes on the grill and cook, turning often, until the sweet potatoes are soft and yield when gently squeezed, about 30 to 45 minutes. Remove from the grill and allow to cool before handling.
- Scoop the sweet potato flesh into a mixing bowl and discard the skins. With a potato masher or heavy fork, mash the potatoes with the cream, then add the brown sugar, pecans, Bourbon, cinnamon, nutmeg and egg, mixing well. Divide the mixture into 6 portions.
- Place 1 pie crust on a flat work surface and place one portion of the sweet potato mixture in the middle. Top the sweet potato filling with half of a chocolate bar and 2 tablespoons marshmallows, then fold one half of the crust over the filling. Crimp the edges of the pie crust and turn over to seal well. Repeat with the remaining crusts and fillings.
- Gently rub about 1 teaspoon butter on both sides of the pies and place in aluminum foil. Place the filled pies on the grill, and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Unwrap the pies and return to the grill to brown on both sides, being careful that the crusts do not burn, about 2 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately.
