Chocolate Chess Pie

This pie is so good, so luscious, so silky--it's absolutely heavenly! I took the advice of the other reviewers to reduce the sugar to 1 cup (and I used light brown sugar), and to up the cocoa powder by a tablespoon (for a total of 4 tbsps). I also had 4 eggs yolks that needed used up, so I swapped those for the 2 whole eggs, used whole milk in place of evaporated milk, and added a good pinch of salt and espresso powder. It worked perfectly! The pie was also baked in 45 minutes exactly for me. I am so pleased with the texture of this pie especially. It is divine! The perfect sweetness, with a lovely chocolate flavor, and just so smooth! Thank you for sharing your recipe!

First time making a Chess Pie. My oven cooked it a little uneven but it tastes great ! I read a lot of comments and tried to follow the recommendations that made sense. A little more cocos, a little less sugar and leaving it in the oven for about 10 minutes after it was done with the door propped open. My husband loved it, he usually thinks chocolate desserts are too rich, not this one. We both agree it’s a keeper.

I’ve been thinking of Black Forest Cake all year and decided that a Black Forest Pie would be tasty. So, using this Chocolate Chess Pie in a deep dish, I heated a can of cherry pie filling during the baking time, and after cooling the pie, poured the Cherry filling on top. After it cooled, I added decorative icing stars all around the perimeter.

I tried this recipe and loved it... Added my own twist with a half cup of milk chocolate chips...

Easy to make. Next time will lessen agar and cocoa. Very good pie. it was a big hit
