CHESS PIE

 

1 stick butter

1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp cornmeal
3 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tbsp buttermilk
Unbaked pie shell

In a saucepan, melt butter then stir in sugar until dissolved. Remove pan from heat.

Combine the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Slowly pour about half a cup of the butter mixture into the egg mixture while whisking vigorously. Once that is incorporated, add another half cup of the butter mixture and whisk vigorously.

Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan and whisk until smooth. If lumpy, strain with a sieve.

Pour the mixture into the pie shell and bake at 350 to 375 degrees until the top is golden brown and center barely shakes when lightly moved.
