Chess Pie III

Submitted by: Claire
This is a rich, flavorful pie that 's like eating a pecan pie without the pecans. Along with the sugar, butter and eggs, this recipe calls for cornmeal, vinegar and vanilla.

This is a wonderful version of this classic buttery, sweet pie, but a smidgen of cornmeal and condensed milk are stirred in just before it 's poured into the pie shell and baked.

The classic sweet and gooey Chess Pie becomes even more wonderful with the addition of unsweetened cocoa. This recipe yields a delicious 9-inch pie.

I was in the middle of making a Chess pie and realized I was out of vanilla extract. I substituted some maple extract I had on hand, added some pecans and the result was delicious. This pie is decadent and rich, so fortunately a small slice will do. I think this would be a great pie for Thanksgiving. Top with sweetened whipped cream or whipped topping if desired.

This is a very old Southern recipe. It's a very sweet, rich pie which cannot be described as anything but marvelous. This is not my personal recipe but was passed to me by my grandmother and from her grandmother and so on and so forth.
