La Belle Cuisine

 


As mentioned previously, I absolutely LOVE chess pie. Beyond all
reason. Now that we have Craig Claiborne's recipe as a foundation,
let's branch out a bit. Except for the first one (which I love for its
simplicity), our files have no record of the source of these recipes.
Let's just consider them all in the family...

 

Elizabeth Bagby's Old Fashioned

Alibris

1/2 pound [2 sticks] melted butter
3/4 pound [12 ounces] sugar
5 eggs, beaten
3 lemons, juice and grated rind

Mix ingredients together. Bake in small pastry shells, about 2 table-
spoons in each, depending on size of tins.  Bake at 425 degrees F.
for about 13 minutes, or until lightly browned.

  

Coconut Chess Pie

4 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup flaked coconut
1 unbaked 9-inch pastry shell
Toasted flaked coconut

Combine eggs, sugar. butter, vinegar, vanilla and salt; beat well. Stir in 1
cup coconut; pour into pastry shell. Bake at 325 degrees F. for 45 to 50 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack. Garnish with toasted coconut.

In a medium bowl combine sugar, cocoa, salt, flour, cornmeal and
pecans; mix well. Combine eggs, milk and vanilla extract; stir into dry ingredients, mix well. Pour into pastry shell; bake at 350 degrees F. for
45 to 50 minutes or until pie is set. Cool on a wire rack. Lightly sift
confectioner's sugar over pie - through a doily, if desired.
