4. 4While potatoes bake, prepare the chess pie crust topping
5. 5Mix all chess pie ingredients thoroughly and set aside for later
6. 6Prepare your pie shells. Brush shells with some of your melted butter and add 1-2 tbsp of brown sugar on the bottoms to prevent shells from getting soggy. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes on 350
7. 7Once potatoes have fully cooled, peel the skin off of them and add to your mixing bowl
8. 8Add your butter, evaporated milk, vanilla, and sweetened condensed milk(optional) and start mixing

13. 13(Optional) Use blender to get rid of any remaining strings if you don’t like them
14. 14Fill pie crusts 2/3 of the way full with your sweet potato pie filling and bake for around 15-20 minutes in the oven on 350
15. 15Remove your pies from the oven and add some of your chess pie filling on top
16. 16Place back in oven and bake for around 1 hour or until tooth pick comes out clean
17. 17Refrigerate (preferably overnight to allow it to set) and enjoy. I prefer heating this one up in the microwave for a bit before eating.
