Pumpkin Pie Bites (Bakerella)

2 refrigerated ready-to roll pie crusts

8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter

Optional
1/2 cup chocolate morsels
vegetable oil
re-sealable plastic bags

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Use cookie cutter to cut 12 pumpkin shapes from each pie crust. You will need to roll the dough thinner than it comes out of the box.
Press dough shapes into a 24 cup mini muffin tray. (Make 12 at a time, alternating cups to make sure pie crusts don’t overlap each other.)
Apply egg whites from one egg to the top edges of each pie.
Mix cream cheese, sugar, canned pumpkin, remaining 2 eggs, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice together until thoroughly combined.
Spoon mixture into each pumpkin-shaped pie crust.
Bake for 12-15 minutes.
Remove pies to cool and repeat with second pie crust. Place the muffin tray in the freezer to cool it quickly for re-use.

Drizzle melted white chocolate on top

Marla's Sweet Potaoes

2 c. cooked, mashed sweet potatoes (I have used fresh and canned and think they both turn out great.)

1 - 1/2 c. brown sugar

3/4 stick butter (everything tastes better if you use real butter instead of margarine)

1/4 t. nutmeg

2 eggs

1 c. milk

3/4 t. cinnamon

Mix together well. Bake in casserole dish for 35 minutes at 400 degrees. (Now this is a bit tricky because it depends on the pan you use. If you spread it thinner in a 9x13 or such, then this time is probably good, but I always make it in a circular, deeper dish and it needs to cook for about an hour to be sure it's cooked all the way through)

Add following topping and bake for 10 minutes longer.

3/4 c. corn flakes

1/2 c. brown sugar

1/2 c. chopped pecans

1/2 stick melted butter.
