Lemon Chess Pie

Ingredients


 * 4 eggs


 * 11/2 cups sugar


 * 3 TBS cornmeal
 * 1/4 cup sweet butter, melted
 * 1/2 cup whole milk
 * 2 lemons, juiced

Instructions

Combine eggs, sugar, cornmeal, melted butter, milk, and lemon juice in a large bowl.

Mix until sugar is dissolved, but do not beat. Pour filling into unbaked pricked pie shell.

Bake at 425 for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 and continue to bake until set. Cornmeal will form a crust on top of custard. This is the very best part, so if you don't have cornmeal in the pantry--borrow some from a neighbor or make some other kind of pie! Cool before serving. ▪
