checkmate.

Tonight I helped Jessica make key lime pie and chess squares. I had never had key lime pie, and I had never heard of chess squares. Apparently they are a Southern thing. Anyway, they were pretty good and pretty simple to make.


Chess Squares
Cook Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 package butter cake mix
• 1 stick butter, (4 oz), softened
• 1 egg, slightly beaten
• 1 box confectioners' sugar, (1 lb)
• 3 eggs, slightly beaten
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

Preparation:
Combine cake mix, butter and egg and pat into 9x13" pan. Mix sugar, eggs and cream cheese, and pour on the crust mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes, or until browned.

Serves 12.
