For the Pudding:
4 medium sweet potatoes, baked and peeled (about 2 pounds)
3 eggs
1 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup pecan pieces
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons Steen's 100% Pure Cane Syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons bourbon
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter, softened
Parsley, to garnish
For the Pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mash the potatoes
in a mixing bowl, until smooth. Add the eggs and milk and mix well. Add
the nutmeg, cinnamon, 1/2 cup of the pecans, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar,
syrup, salt, vanilla, and bourbon. Mix well. Pour the mixture into a 1
1/2 quart round baking dish. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup pecans and the
remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar with the butter and mix well. Dot the top
of the potato mixture with spoonfuls of the butter mixture. Bake for about
45 minutes, or until bubbly.
