CHOCOLATE CHESS PIE

WHAT IS CHESS PIE

Generally speaking, it’s a type of pie filled with a mixture of eggs, butter, and sugar. Sometimes, fruits and nuts or other flavorings can be added to the pie. Some recipes call for flour or cornmeal as a thickener.

If you’ve ever enjoyed a slice of ooey-gooey pecan pie, then you are somewhat familiar with chess pie because it falls into the same category of being a Chess Pie!

Chocolate Chess Pie is a beloved Southern favorite with its rich, fudgy filling. It's the perfect addition to a holiday meal, Sunday dinner, or a potluck!
