In a medium bowl, whisk together sweet potato puree, egg white, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger and bourbon.

Lightly coat a 4” muffin pan with cooking spray. Unroll and cover phyllo sheets with plastic wrap, then a slightly damp towel to prevent drying out. Place one sheet of phyllo on work surface, spray lightly with cooking spray layer and repeat with to make a stack of 6 phyllo sheets. Cut three 5-inch circles from phyllo stack. Place layered phyllo circles into a muffin cup. Carefully push phyllo into cup, pressing firmly against bottom and sides. Repeat process to make 8 shells.
