Chess Pie
For the crust:
1 box yellow cake mix
1 stick butter, melted
1 egg
Mix by hand until it forms a dough, then press into a 9x13-inch pan.
For the pie:
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
2 eggs, beaten
1 box powdered sugar (reserving 3 Tbsp. for later)
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Mix all ingredients together with a mixer. Pour evenly on top of dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Once coo, sprinkle with reserved powdered sugar.
Several of the recipes that we love so much in our family have come from people that my Mom used to work with. This being one of them, it is truly a rich and delicious dessert, and it almost resembles (to me) Paula Deen's Ooey Gooey Butter Cake. This is a perfect dish to take to a pot luck or luncheon, because even though it is SO incredible, it's kind of hard to finish on your own! Serve this warm with some homemade vanilla ice cream, and you will have yourself the perfect dessert!
