Hi Everybody, Does anyone know of a good sugar free or lower sugar Chess Pie Recipe? My family is getting together this Sunday for our Thanksgiving dinner and I want to make a Chess Pie I can eat. Thanks a lot. Julie

Kathy, I've been thinking I will just use our normal recipe and substitute the sugar with Splenda and see how it works. I'll sample it before the whole family comes just to make sure it isn't nasty and turns out ok. If it works pretty good I'll send you the recipe. It's not hard to make. Love you, Julie

The problem with chess pie is that sugar creates most of the bulk of the pie, and much of the texture, too. If the Splenda substitution doesn't work the way you want, try using 3/4 Splenda to 1/4 sugar, and bake it in tart shells or phyllo shells...that way if it doesn't set up right you won't be slicing a runny pie! And, with a dollop of sugar-free whipped topping and a half slice of lemon for garni**** might be the prettiest thing on the table! Let us know how it comes out.
