Chocolate Chess Pie image

This recipe is one that my family loves, and there are several variations that can be made instead. I have included the amounts and ingredients for the variations, and my tips for knowing when the pie is done along with the best way to make 2 pies instead of just 1. I hope you love these as much as we do.

Time 40m

Yield 1-2 Pies, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

9 inches pie shells
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons margarine
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place Regular 9" pie shell on a cookie sheet, or pizza pan.
  • In small microwavable bowl melt chocolate chips, and margarine in microwave on low heat or manual defrost for 3mins or until melted. (Do not over heat or popping will occur).
  • Combine in med size bowl eggs, milk, vanilla, sugar, and flour then mix with electric mixer on low setting or fork until blended approximately 1 minute.
  • Stir melted chocolate chips, and margarine with a fork until blended then add to above items, and blend with electric mixer on low setting until combined.
  • Pour into Regular 9" Pie Shell and bake 30-45 mins until crust is a med golden brown.
  • (Do Not over cook crust as it will change the flavor.) My motto is if the crust is a med brown and the center of the pie has stopped shaking, it's time to stop this pie from baking. Pie will thicken some upon cooling.
  • Let Cool approximately 15 mins and cut into 8 slices before serving. Add whipped topping if desired.
  • NOTE: When I Make 2 pies I use 2 small bowls, and 2 med bowls then mix as directed above because it changes the flavor of these pies if you double the ingredients in the same bowls.
  • Variations: Plain Chess Pie Omit chocolate chips from recipe.
  • Peanut Butter Variation add 1/4th cup peanut butter, instead of chocolate chips
  • Chocolate/Peanut Butter Variation 1/8th cup peanut butter, and
  • 1/8th cup semisweet chocolate chips.
  • Note: In The Variations with peanut butter, you do Not need to melt the peanut butter in the microwave.
