Recipe Introduction
This is amazingly good. Jessica made it and I think that we are going to have to have a bake off between this and my 'New and Improved Lemon Chess Pie'. I suspect this one is better.
List of Ingredients
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1 tablespoon fine yellow cornmeal
4 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons grated lemon rind
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice with pulp
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie shell
1 cup heavy cream, whippedRecipe
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl combine the sugar, flour and cornmeal. Blend well, then add the eggs and combine well. Add the milk and mix then stir in the melted butter, lemon rind and juice. Pour this filling into the crust and cover the edge of the crust with foil to prevent it from burning, taking care not to touch the filling. Bake for 45 minutes, removing the foil after 30 minutes. Cool and serve or refrigerate overnight but let sit out 3 hours before serving to warm up slightly. Serve with dollops of whipped cream.
