Chess Pie is a classic Southern dessert known for its rich, custardy filling. Made from simple ingredients like sugar, eggs, butter, and vanilla, this sweet pie exudes comfort. Originating in the Southern United States, its name is believed to come from the term "just pie," reflecting its straightforward charm.
