Ingredients

• Prepared pie crust -- I always use David Letterman's mother's recipe
• 1 butternut squash, about 1 1/2 pounds (will yield 6 cups of cubed squash after peeling and de-seeding)
• 3 large eggs plus 2 large egg yolks (see ideas for the extra egg whites here.)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (I used light, but don't think it matters)
• 2 T applesauce (original recipe called for 2 T brandy, but I don't have that sitting around...)
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Salt and pepper
• 3 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered length-wise
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 8 Tbsp heavy cream
• 4 Tbsp butter
• 2 Tbsp milk
