Prep Time: 45 mins

Total Time: 1 hr 40 mins

Yield: 8

Ingredients

• 10 ounces sour 网吧撸管视频, pitted and halved (1 ¾ cups)
• 6 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon plus 4 teaspoons unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 2 pinches kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon finely grated lime zest, plus ¾ teaspoon fresh juice
• 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 large egg yolk, plus 1 large egg, beaten
• 3 tablespoons sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 pound all-butter puff pastry, thawed if frozen

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine 1 1/4 cups 网吧撸管视频, 1/4 cup sugar, 4 teaspoons flour, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook 30 seconds more, then remove from heat and let cool completely, 30 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup 网吧撸管视频 and lime juice (you should have 1 cup).
• Beat together cream cheese, lime zest, egg yolk, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, and remaining pinch of salt on medium speed until smooth. Beat in coconut and remaining 1 tablespoon flour.
• On a lightly floured sheet of parchment, roll out dough to a 16 1/2-by-12 1/2-inch rectangle. Trim edges. Cut in half horizontally; cut each half into four 4-by-6-inch rectangles (8 total). Slide parchment onto a baking sheet; refrigerate 15 minutes.
• Remove dough from refrigerator. Place 1 tablespoon cream-cheese mixture on one short side of a piece of dough. Top with about 2 tablespoons cherry mixture. Brush edges with egg wash, then fold dough over to enclose filling. Press edges with a fork to seal. Repeat with remaining pastry and filling. Cut a 1-inch vent in top of each pastry. Brush off excess flour, then brush with egg wash. Freeze 15 minutes. Transfer to oven, reduce temperature to 375 degrees, and bake until pies are puffed, golden brown, and bubbling, 32 to 37 minutes. Transfer immediately to a wire rack; let cool completely.

Cook’s Notes

For the flakiest results possible, use all-butter puff pastry and chill it twice: once in the fridge before filling, and again in the freezer after assembly and before baking.
