Time 1h35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings (one 9-inch pie)

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 9-inch deep-dish pie shell, blind baked according to package directions and cooled
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon finely ground yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla paste

Steps:

  • For the pie: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the blind-baked pie shell on a rimmed sheet pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until combined. Add the butter, milk, flour, cornmeal, vinegar, vanilla and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell and bake until the center of the custard is just set and the edges are slightly puffy, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely
  • For the whipped cream: Beat the cream with the confectioners' sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Chill until ready to serve.
  • Slice the pie and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality, fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your chess pie.
  • Make sure your butter is cold when you cut it into the flour. This will help to create a flaky, tender crust.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the crust is cooked evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before slicing it. This will help to prevent the filling from running out.
