| And you should try chat got for this. Ask it to look at old recipes from that era and region. |

| Mississippi mud is cake/brownie with marshmallow on top. Could be a regional version of that. |

This looks very promising. Well done. Because the whipped cream the recipe uses along with 🍂 garnishes won't hold up even in fridge if the pie isn't eaten all at once, marshmallow cream might have been used. It holds up for subsequent servings. PP |

| Look up derby pie. Sounds kind of different but it’s a chocolate pie. |

That's also my guess. |

| I know what you are talking about. My family made a chocolate pudding pie, but there was another chocolate pie that was more cake-y, like a brownie. |

It's chocolate chess pie: https://www.southernliving.com/grandma-chocolate-chess-pie-recipe-11810408
Ice cream, cool whip, whipped cream, all common on top. |

There is a range of chess pies out there, and you should try all of them |

| As I recall, chess pies are more the texture of a pecan pie sans pecans. If OP remembers a brownie loke texture that's more like the fudgey brownie pie above. |

Chocolate Chess pies from a pastor in NC. Interesting article, not so much for his recipe, but for his passion. I have known him for most of my life.

I really should! Op, I hope you bake several of these and please come back and tell us which is the one from yourmemories. I think family recipes are so fun and important to pass down. |

It may also have been German Chocolate Pie. That's the main one I remember (other than the Jello chocolate one.)
