Kitchen View

Step 1

<p>Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F.</p>

Step 2

<p>In food processor, finely grind Maria cookies. Add coconut and lime zest; pulse until combined. Toss mixture with butter until well coated. Transfer mixture to 9-inch springform pan and press into bottom and sides.</p>

Step 3

<p>Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden, crisp and fragrant. Let cool completely before filling.</p>

Step 4

<p>Pineapple Curd: In medium saucepan set over medium heat, whisk together lime zest, lime juice and cornstarch until smooth and blended. Whisk in pineapple juice.</p>

Step 5

<p>In medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolks and sugar until pale and thickened. Whisk eggs mixture into pineapple juice mixture until combined.</p>

Step 6

<p>Place saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly with a spatula, bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened.</p>

Step 7

<p>Remove from heat; stir in butter until fully incorporated. Pass through fine-mesh sieve into prepared crust. Cover surface directly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or until well chilled, thickened and set. Keep refrigerated until needed.</p>

Step 8

<p>Coconut Cream Layer: Into medium microwave-safe dish, add 1/4 cup cream of coconut. Sprinkle gelatin over top. Let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in 2 tbsp cream of coconut. Microwave on HIGH for 45 to 60 seconds or until mixture comes to a boil. Stir to dissolve gelatin. Stir in remaining cream of coconut.</p>

Step 9

<p>In chilled large bowl, using handheld electric mixer, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy (chilled bowl will help mixture set faster). Reduce speed to low; beat in confectioners’ sugar and rum extract until blended and smooth. Beat in cream of coconut mixture until combined. Fold in coconut.</p>

Step 10

<p>Spread filling over pineapple curd layer, smooth top. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours or until layers are firm and set.</p>

Step 11

<p>Topping: Just before serving, using handheld electric mixer with clean beaters, whip cream until stiff peaks start to form. Beat in confectioners’ sugar and vanilla until combined.</p>

Step 12

<p>Top pie with dollops of whipped cream mixture, coconut, and lime zest. Garnish with pineapple and cherries.</p> <p>Note: Substitute store-bought whipped topping for whipped cream mixture if desired.</p>
