Brown Sugar Chess Pie

This recipe was another that has been passed down to me by my husband's family. It belonged to my late mother-in-law, whom I never had the pleasure of meeting because she passed before I met him.
I sure wish I could have met her, I here she was an amazing person and according to the recipes I now have of hers, I bet she was a fantastic cook as well.

Preheat oven to 320

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar (your choice light or dark, I prefer dark)
1 Tbsp self-rising flour
1 Tbsp corn meal
2 eggs beaten
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp vanilla
1 9in unbaked pie shell

In small to medium mixing bowl combine: sugar, brown sugar, flour and cornmeal.

In separate small to medium bowl beat 2 eggs and add milk, butter, vinegar and vanilla.

Blend both mixtures together well and pour into unbaked pie shell.  Bake for 45 - 50 minutes.

Cool completely before cutting.
