Chess Pie
Some of you might remember I posted my kick-ass Key Lime Pie recipe a while back. Well, here's my late grandmother's recipe for Chess Pie.
One pre-cooked pie shell (not the deep dish one, it won't cook properly), or your own homemade one.
1 stick butter
1 ½ cups sugar
2 tsp. plain white vinegar
3 eggs
1 ½ tsp. corn meal
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 350
Combine butter and sugar in a saucepan and melt over med low heat about 5 minutes stirring regularly. Remove the pan from the heat and add the vinegar. Then add the eggs, one at a time beating in thoroughly after each. Add the corn meal and vanilla. Pour into pie shell and bake about 45 minutes. Totally cool down to room temp before slicing.
