Awesome Chess Pie
By: mariposa13

This is a really good recipe for chess pie. I found it somewhere on the internet and have been using it for a couple of years. It's great! I am not adding anything to this recipe in response to the 1 star review. This is the exact way I make this every time and it always comes out perfect. Flour/cornstarch would not be good in a chess pie.

Mariposa, this pie was so wonderful, and it did set perfectly for me. I used regular strength pure vanilla for this, and cut the sugar down a bit, and baked it in my air-bake convection oven for approx 27 minutes. It came out with a wonderfu light custard-like texture. My DH has almost devoured the whole pie himself LOL!...and is already asking me to make another very soon. Thank you so much for posting, great pie hon!....Kittencal

Okay - let me say first that I have never heard of chess pie...with that said, this pie is YUMMY! I hope my family eats it all up when they get home, or I'll have to eat the whole thing myself, and that would be just a shame (to my thighs anyway)!

This is the first one star rating I've given. This recipe did not work at all, and I followed it to the letter. It is missing something to make it thicken, which I believe to be flour or even a cornmeal/flour combo. Made it for company and was so embarrassed it didn't turn out and I'm so disappointed. Please revise and resubmit so no one else has "egg" on their face like I did today!
