MAMA'S CHESS PIE
This old family recipe is a gem. It's creamy and smooth with a sweet, rich brown butter flavor. Brushing egg white on the crust and par-baking it helps the crust hold up well. It gives the crust excellent flakiness. Easy to make, this is a divine holiday dessert. We're ready to try the lemon version too!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Note: I love a flaky crust so have found this to help, while baking keep a beaten egg white handy. Brush the unbaked pie shell bottom and sides with the beaten egg white.
- 2. Bake that for 7-minutes. Let it cool then proceed on.
- 3. Beat eggs and butter until light and lemon colored.
- 4. Sprinkle in the remaining dry ingredients.
- 5. Then add the evaporated milk and vanilla.
- 6. Pour this into the pie shell.
- 7. Bake for 55-65 minutes until set.
- 8. NOTE: You can make this a lemon chess pie by adding 1/4 cup lemon juice and the zest from one lemon.

CHESS PIE
This is a very old Southern recipe. It's a very sweet, rich pie which cannot be described as anything but marvelous. This is not my personal recipe but was passed to me by my grandmother and from her grandmother and so on and so forth.

MAMA'S BUTTERMILK COCONUT PIE
My mama showed me how to make this pie about 40 years ago, just as her mama showed her how to make it. I was 6 when Mawmaw passed away, but I can still remember her cooking in the kitchen in her beautiful cotton dresses dusted with flour. I am honored to teach my daughter how to make this dessert, too. -Lisa Allen, Joppa, Alabama
