This pie would be the perfect addition to any holiday gathering or anytime you need a wonderful dessert. We love chess pie and the pineapple chess pie is probably one of our favorites, which is great for summer, but this one is quickly moving to the top of the list.
Pecan Chess Pie Ingredients Needed:
Deep Dish Pie Shell
Butter
Sugar
Vanilla extract or flavoring
Eggs
Buttermilk (see notes)
Cornmeal
Distilled Vinegar
Pecans
We have made this pie a few times and my family loves it. Most recently we decided to make it and didn’t have any buttermilk. I used evaporated milk, in the same amount and it worked great. So you can use that instead of buttermilk. It is delicious either way!
This pie is wonderful served warm with ice cream or whipped topping. Honestly we don’t find this pie overly sweet, even with the amount of sugar that is in it. I have not tried making it with less sugar.
