• 1 white cake mix (regular size)
• 1 C chopped pecans, toasted
• 1/2 C cold butter, cubed
• 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 C sugar
• 3 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk, divided
• 3 C cooked and mashed sweet potatoes (about 3 medium)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine cake mix and pecans; cut in butter until crumbly. Press mixture onto bottom of a greased 13-by-9 baking dish. Beat cream cheese, sugar, 1 egg and 2 Tbsp sweetened condensed milk until smooth; set aside. Stir together sweet potatoes, remaining eggs, remaining milk and pie spice; pour over pecan mixture.

Allow to cool completely; chill before cutting into bars.
