DeleteI'am still moaning the loss of my Chess Pie recipe.... We've made a few moves in recent years and it has come up missing.... Mine had pecans in it though and hubby loved it because it wasn't as sweet as a regular pecan pie.. But i know it didn't have vinegar, cornmeal, or buttermilk in it... sigh... Its funny i don't care for it but the family they love it...lol Have you ever heard of or made a Shoo Fly Pie??? My Pennsylvania / New Jersey roots are showing... :) . Hugs! deb
