For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of bourbon instead of rum. Browning the butter before adding it to the filling adds a nutty depth that complements the sweet potatoes beautifully. If the pie crust starts to brown too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil during the final baking stage. Serve chilled or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
