Here is the recipe I use for Chess Pie. It's really simple, but very tasty.
And, it's even better cold the next day.
Chess Pie
Ingredients
3 eggs
1-1/2 cups Sugar
1 Tbsp Cornmeal
1 Tbsp Vinegar
3/4 stick Butter
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
Procedure
In a large bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add sugar, corn meal, vinegar, and vanilla extract and mix well.
Melt the butter and then add it to the mixture. Mix well.
Pour into a 9" piecrust and bake at 400 degrees till the top is nicely browned (but don't let it burn).
Remove from oven and let stand for 2 or more hours till compeltely cool before serving.
You must let it cool completely!
When it comes out of the oven, it will still look "jiggly" and "poofy" but don't worry. Once it completely cools, it will deflate a little and firm up and can easily be cut and served. This is a great pie to be made a day ahead.
