Ah, chess pie!  My wife, Sweet Loretta, finally handed over the recipe for this Southern delight so that I can share it with you fine folks!  The story of this sweet pie goes like this:  Many years ago, when a Southern housewife was greeted with unexpected guests, she whipped up a pie using only basic ingredients that she had in her cupboard.  When her guests raved about this simple, yet delicious pie and asked what it was called, the housewife coyly replied, "Oh, it's jess pie!"... and over the years the moniker of "Chess" Pie came into use!
