WALNUT RAISIN CHESS PIE 
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
2 tbsp. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
3 eggs
3/4 c. light cream
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. raisins, coarsely chopped
1 c. walnuts, chopped med. fine
1 unbaked 9 inch pie shell

In a medium mixing bowl, cream butter, sugars, flour and salt. Beat in eggs one at a time.

Gently beat in cream and vanilla. Mixture will look curdled, but this disappears on baking. Stir in raisins. Turn into pastry shell; sprinkle with walnuts.

Bake on a low rack of a preheated 375 degree oven until pastry is browned and filling set in center when pie is gently shaken back and forth, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool before cutting.
