Museum Chess Pie Recipe
I love Chess Pie. I have found many variations. This is my favorite, and comes from the cookbook: Friends of the St. Louis Symphony's cookbook, The New St. Louis Symphony of Cooking

I love chess pie too.... this is great...Thanks...


Never heard of it, can this double as a dessert and breakfast?


Hell yes!


Dessert, lunch, breakfast,is there a difference? This pie is delicious!!


Thank you so much Gwen!


Oh my, I haven't had this pie in years.. gotta make it soon! Thank you for the Post!


Ok - I'm usually very good at baking anything but I seem to be having all kinds of trouble with chess pie!!! Every recipe I've tried will not set! I'm so frustrated - any ideas????


The same thing happens to me. It is annoying. One trick, I've tried is after it's done baking is to just turn off the oven and leave it in there.


Thanks!! I made another one last night and just cooked it to death but it actually tasted really good and the top wasn't too brown.
