This Brown Sugar Chess Pie Recipe is an old fashioned custard pie flavored with molasses hinted brown sugar, cornmeal and vinegar making it the best pie to serve all fall long!
Beat butter, both sugars, eggs, cornmeal, vanilla and vinegar together in a medium sized bowl using a hand mixer or in the bowl of your stand mixer until well combined.
If using my pie crust recipe, roll one of the disks out into the pie plate then use a fork to poke holes along the sides and bottom of the pie crust. Line the pie crust with parchment paper. Fill with pie weights, making sure the weights are evenly distributed around the pie dish. Pre-bake the crust for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the parchment paper/pie weights. If you would like, you can brush some egg wash on the outside of the crust as well (just take 1 egg and whisk together with a teaspoon of water).
Pour batter into prepared pie shell and bake for 35-40 minutes.
Cool for at least 4 hours and serve.
Notes
Make sure all of your ingredients are room temperature before beginning your custard base! This is crucial!
