A rich lemony, buttery filling-this is superb eaten as a pudding, or in a pie (see tip for making pie)! Recipe was passed down to a Southern Living Editor from her late mother, Louise Floyd of Potter's Station, Alabama. Thank you Ms. Floyd, for sharing this lovely recipe with us! Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
4 large eggs |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1/4 cup milk |
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon cornmeal |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Whisk together all ingredients. Use filling immediately.
2. Makes enough to fill one 9-inch pie.
3. (Tip: To make Lemon Chess Pie, pour filling into 9-inch unbaked pieshell and bake at 350 degrees F for 50 minutes or until firm. Shield edges to prevent excess browning, if needed. Cool completely on a wire rack.).
