>> Everyone's first question is "What is a Chess Pie?"  Well, its origin, so far as I know, comes from early settlers in this country and probably originally comes from England.  It can be made from ingredients normally found in the kitchen in periods where fruits and nuts are not readily available.  When asked what kind of pie she had made, the cook usually said, "Oh it's jes' pie."  Supposedly, from this the name "Chess Pie" was coined.  Variations include Chocolate Chess Pie and Pecan Chess Pie.
