Lemon Chess Pie

This is in the oven as I type this.  It smells wonderful.  I’m taking it to our church’s potluck dinner after church tomorrow.  I know it will taste as delicious as it smells.  (Later note:  It is certifiably delicious!  RT, Lillian (my MIL) and I couldn’t resist - we each had a tiny sliver tonight.  Wow!  VERY good.

 Lemon Chess Pie

4 eggs

1 1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup melted butter

1 Tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons cornmeal

3 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 Tablespoon finely grated lemon peel (lemon zest)

pinch of salt

 Mix well.  Bake at 325 degrees for 30 - 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
