Directions

Mix together yams and butter in a bowl until well blended. Add remaining ingredients (except the pie shell), and beat with an electric mixer, making sure to get the rid of the yam fibers, (These gather on the beaters, so just wash them off and continue to beat.) Pour mixture into the pie shell and bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until done (when a toothpick inserted in center of the pie comes out clean).
