Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Peel the sweet potatoes and cut each into 3 or 4 large chunks.
• Place potatoes in a large pan of boiling water. Boil for 20 - 25 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender.
• With a slotted spoon, remove potato chunks from the water, letting as much water drain off the potatoes as possible. Place the chunks in a food processor.
• Process the cooked potato in the food processor until completely smooth.
• In a large bowl with a wire whisk, combine 2 1/2 cups of the puree, sugar, brown sugar, butter, eggs, milk, seeds from the vanilla bean, bourbon, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.
• Pour filling into the pie crust.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 50-60 minutes, or until the pie is set and a sharp knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
• Let cool completely, then serve with a generous dollop of freshly whipped cream.
