Form into a disc and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour. Roll the dough into a 9 1/2-inch round and fit into the tart tin.
• Mix together the remaining 2 cups coconut, egg whites, confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Lightly press mixture against the sides of the tin. Chill for 30 minutes then bake in a preheated 375-degree F oven for 8 minutes, until just set.

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Spread the coconut in an even layer in a large nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the flakes are golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove to a plate to cool, about 5 minutes.
• To make the crust, pulse the graham crackers, pecans, salt, 1/2 cup of the coconut and 1/4 cup of the agave in a food processor until fine crumbs form, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture comes together and resembles wet sand.
• Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie pan and press into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick border. Use the bottom and sides of a measuring cup to press and form the crust to make sure it is even. Bake until the crust is just golden and slightly puffy, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
• Drain the cashews, add to a blender and pulse to a coarse meal, about 1 minute. Add the key lime juice, coconut cream, cornstarch, lime zest and remaining 1/2 cup agave and blend until completely smooth and no longer gritty from the cashews. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and gently tap a few times on the counter to release the bubbles. Refrigerate until set, 6 hours and up to overnight.

FLORIDA PIE

Steps:

• Getting Ready: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Put the pie plate on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat.
• Put the cream and 1 cup of the coconut in a small saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring almost constantly. Continue to cook and stir until the cream is reduced by half and the mixture is slightly thickened. Scrape the coconut cream into a bowl and set it aside while you prepare the lime filling.
• Working with a stand mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat the egg yolks on high speed until thick and pale. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the condensed milk. Still on low, add half of the lime juice. When it is incorporated, add the remaining juice, again mixing until it is blended. Spread the coconut cream in the bottom of the graham cracker crust, and pour over the lime filling.
• Bake the pie for 12 minutes. Transfer the pie to a cooling rack and cool for 15 minutes, then freeze the pie for at least 1 hour.
• To finish the pie with meringue: Preheat the broiler. Put the 4 egg whites and the sugar in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan and heat over medium-low heat, whisking all the while, until the whites are hot to the touch. Transfer the whites to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or use a hand mixer in a large bowl, and beat the whites at high speed until they reach room temperature and hold firm peaks. Using a rubber spatula, fold the remaining ½ cup coconut into the meringue. Spread the meringue over the top of the pie, and run the pie under the broiler until the top of the meringue is golden brown. (Or, if you've got a blowtorch, you can use it to brown the meringue.) Return the pie to the freezer for another 30 minutes or for up to 3 hours before serving.

COCONUT LIME PIE

Steps:

• Put the biscuits in a food processor and whizz to fine crumbs. Add the butter and whizz again briefly, then tip the buttery crumbs into a 22cm fluted tart tin. Use the back of a spoon to press the crumbs over the surface and up the sides of the tin until evenly spread and compacted. Make sure that there are no gaps in the crust or the filling will leak. Chill for 10 mins.
• In a large saucepan, whisk together the lime zest and juice, condensed milk, coconut cream and 100ml double cream. Place on a medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Bubble quite vigorously for 4 mins, then pour into the tart case - this is easiest if you transfer the liquid to a jug and pour straight into the case while it is still in the fridge. Chill for at least 4 hrs or until completely set.
• When you are ready to serve, lightly whip together the remaining cream and icing sugar until it is just forming soft peaks. Pile it into the centre of the pie and smooth out towards the edges. Scatter over the toasted coconut and serve. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for 2 days.
