"My favorite, Hoosier Cream. That last one is an utterly simple mix of butter, sugar, and vanilla-flavored cream, baked to become a sort of fudgy custard that is like a Midwestern analog of dulce de leche, but richer. It is the official state pie of Indiana."

"What we did taste: Apple Cherry with Oat Crumble – a brilliant balancing act of sweet and tart, soft fruit and streusel top."

"The pies are, in a word, extraordinary."

Bob Batz Jr.

"The "talker" here is the Vinegar Chess Pie."

Nick Kindelsperger

"As we head into winter, I gravitate toward the chocolate chess. It's richly decadent, as all good chocolate pies should be, but also not overly sugary. Basically, it's not so ridiculous that you can't finish the whole slice. That the crust always stays flakey and crisp is a given."

David Sanders

"She makes wonderful chess pies."

Rebecca Flint Marx

"The almost indecently voluptuous coconut cream pie is studded with fresh toasted coconut and freckled with vanilla bean."

Sarah Wells

"Finally, the Chocolate Cream Pie. It was divine. You could tell it was made with high-quality chocolate and was silky smooth."

Emily Hilliard

"Whatever the story, it is shockingly simple, and though not much of a looker, it's quite a pleasant surprise when you taste the rich caramel custard flavor of the smooth, oozy filling."
