Southern Style Lemon Chess Pie Filling image

A rich lemony, buttery filling--this is superb eaten as a pudding, or in a pie (see tip for making pie)! Recipe was passed down to a Southern Living Editor from her late mother, Louise Floyd of Potter's Station, Alabama. Thank you Ms. Floyd, for sharing this lovely recipe with us!

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still good.

I've made this pie several times, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The filling is creamy and tangy, and the crust is flaky and golden brown. It's the perfect dessert for any occasion.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie crust turned out soggy. Not sure what went wrong.
