While at my daughter's church choir Christmas party, I was talking to the other mothers about homemade gifts. One mother said she always gives her neighbors Dark Chocolate Chess Pies. Of course, my initial thought was "I want to be her neighbor." My next one naturally was to get her recipe.
Many thanks again to Josie for sharing her recipe for this exquisitely delicious pie.

How to Make a Chess Pie with Photo Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bake pie crusts blind by either using pie weights in pie crusts or prick holes in bottom and sides to prevent bubbling. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven to rack. Decrease oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
In large saucepan on low melt butter and chocolate, stirring occasionally. In medium bowl, combine sugar and flour with wire whisk. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla and evaporated milk. Add a couple of tablespoonfuls of the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and stir. Add both sugar and egg mixtures to pan of melted chocolate. Stir to combine. Increase heat to medium and stir constantly for 10 minutes.
Evenly divide filling between the 2 pie pans. Bake for 30 minutes.
Makes 2 Pies. (One to share and one to eat?)
Serve with whipped cream.
