Old Country Store Chess Pie

Submitted by jan pan

"I know there are a lot of good, easy, and quick chess pie recipes, but I think this one is my favorite and you don't even have to use a mixer. This recipe comes from The Old Country Store in Jackson TN and we've been making it in our family for at least 30 years. I've used 1.5% milk and apple cider vinegar when that's all I had on hand and you can't tell a difference at all."
