• 5. Set aside to cool, about 5 minutes. Fold in half the tub of cool whip. Make sure its well incorporated.
• 6. Get out 3 small zip lock baggies or if you have a piping bag you can use that, I just find baggies work great as well. Place enough potato mixture to fill halfway full. Snip end of one corner, large enough to get a good flow of potato. Pipe about 1 tablespoon into each indented cookie cup.
• 7. Do the same with the cool whip. Pipe a dollop atop the sweet potato mixture. Sprinkle with pecans.
• 8. Barely heat up some caramel, just enough it will easily drizzle,and add to 3rd bag. Drizzle some caramel atop each pie cup.
• 9. Refrigerate until ready to serve. So darn yummy! Note* you could probably use canned sweet potatoes as well, to simplify the recipe even further. I may try that the next time.
