Thanks, Ladies! Now to pick one and make it! We've had it out at restaurants here in NC but I've never found a recipe for one that looks like what we've eaten.

Never heard of a chess pie, have to look at the recipes
OK looked .... does anyone know why it's called a chess pie, just looks like a chocolate pie to me LOL

[Crafty Amanda]

Just wondering if you ever found a Chocolate Chess Pie you liked Tami? I'm looking for something good to bake

[andyandlexismom]

No, not yet. I'm looking for one like they make at Golden Corral. I've been searching for a while with no luck. Andy would love if I could find one like it, too. lol! That's his favorite.

I wonder if this one is any good http://www.recipezaar.com/Chocolate-Chess-Pie-22421 it got several good reviews!

[Crafty Amanda]

There's a few reviews on this one too http://southernfood.about.com/od/cho...r/bl00510b.htm a couple were negative but the rest positive.

[andyandlexismom]

It looks a little gooey-er in the middle but it's chocolate so it can't be bad!

I think that I have everything here to make this so I might just try this one out. Thanks!

Are you going to try it?

[andyandlexismom]

I'm going to try the first recipe because of the picture. I'm a sucker for a recipe with pictures.

[Crafty Amanda]

When are you trying it? I have actually never had chess pie!

[andyandlexismom]

I made it last night. It was delicious! It's already gone. lol! I'm going to blog about it later tonight when I get a chance to set down here for a while.

I made the first recipe from the link that you posted.


I think that chess pie is different from choc. chess pie. I don't think that it has chocolate in it.

[Crafty Amanda]

Yum! Can't wait to see it Yeah I kinda figured they were different, there are different recipes listed for each type. Come back here and post the link to your blog when you get it posted!
