Simple Southern 5-Ingredient Chess Pie Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Fit the chilled pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges as desired.
Whisk the sugar and melted butter together until thick, glossy, and evenly combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and slightly lighter in color.
Whisk in the milk just until the filling is completely uniform.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and gently tap the pie plate on the counter to release any large air bubbles.
Bake at 375°F for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F without opening the oven door.
Continue baking for 30–35 minutes, until the edges are set, the center has a gentle wobble, and the surface is golden with a thin, delicate crackly sheen.
Transfer the pie to a wire rack and cool completely for at least 2 hours before slicing.
