Is a Buttermilk Pie Also a Chess Pie?

Buttermilk Pie is often mistaken for Chess Pie. This is not the case for this recipe. There are a few slight differences between these two recipes. In a buttermilk pie, there is zest like lemon and vanilla on the inside, whereas chess pie does not have this.

Should I Refrigerate Buttermilk Pie?

Refrigerating your buttermilk pie is not needed for this recipe. However, when you put it into the fridge, it will make the pie last longer. Make sure to store correctly in an airtight container.
