What Is Chocolate Chess Pie? <\/h2>\n

Chocolate chess pie is a decadent variation of Southern chess pie. Regular chess pie has a custardy vanilla filling made with sugar, eggs, milk, and butter. Depending on what recipe you use, the filling is either thickened with flour or cornmeal. <\/p>\n

Chocolate chess pie has one key difference \u2014 it’s chocolatey! Instead of using flour in the filling to thicken it, cornstarch and cocoa powder are used instead. <\/p>\n

The filling of this incredibly rich pie has a similar texture to a fudgy brownie. If you have chocolate lovers in your family, you need to make this pie!<\/p>\n
