Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

One 15-ounce can cream of coconut
8 small limes, 2 zested and all juiced (about 1 cup juice)
One 9-inch prepared graham cracker crust
1 ounce dark chocolate

Steps:

  • Combine the cream of coconut, lime juice and half of the zest in a blender and blend until combined. Pour into the crust and freeze until solid, about 4 hours.
  • Put the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30-second increments, stirring after each, until melted and very thin. Dip a fork into the chocolate and drizzle over the frozen pie.

LIME COCONUT PIE

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons cornmeal cracker crumbs
Pinch of salt
2 1/4 cups sweetened shredded coconut
1 1/4 cups sugar
4 large eggs, separated
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
2 large egg yolks
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
Finely grated zest of 1 lime
3/4 cups sugar cookie or graham

Steps:

  • Combine the topping and crust ingredients. Press one half of the mixture into the bottom and sides of an ungreased 10-inch glass or ceramic pie plate, building up the sides to the top of the plate to form an edge. Reserve remaining mixture for the topping. To make the lime curd, combine the butter, lime juice, cornmeal, salt and 3/4 cup of the sugar in a large bowl over a pan of simmering water with the bottom not touching the water, and slowly cook, scraping the sides of the bowl and whisking occasionally, another 15 minutes, or until thickened. Cover with plastic and refrigerate. Stir the curd every 10 minutes or so to cool evenly.
  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar until stiff and glossy. Gently fold half of the beaten whites into the cool lime curd to lighten. Then fold in the remaining whites and the lime zest. (This should be very gentle; it is okay for a few streaks of white to be showing.) Pour the filling into the pie shell and sprinkle on reserved topping evenly to cover. Gently press the sides in so the top 1/2 inch of the crust remains bare. Bake 45 minutes, or until the pie has risen and coconut is golden brown. The filling should be slightly cracked and firm when pressed in the center. Cool completely, cover with plastic and refrigerate 6 hours to chill thoroughly. Serve cold.

Categories     dessert

Time 5h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Pinch of salt
2 medium hass avocados
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Pinch of salt
Whipped cream or confectioners' sugar, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush an 8-inch springform pan with some of the melted butter. Mix the remaining butter with the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
  • Make the filling: Halve and pit the avocados, then scoop out the flesh and chop. Transfer to a bowl, add the cream cheese and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the condensed milk, lime and lemon juices, and the salt and beat until fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed. Pour the filling into the crust, press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface and chill at least 4 hours.
  • Remove the springform ring and slice the pie. Garnish with whipped cream or confectioners' sugar, if desired, and serve immediately (the top will start to brown as the pie sits).
