Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine 1 1/4 cups cherries, 1/4 cup sugar, 4 teaspoons flour, and a pinchof 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 cherries 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.

CHERRY HAND PIES

Steps:

• Make the dough: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and shortening and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Drizzle in 6 tablespoons ice water and pulse until the dough starts coming together.
• Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap and lightly knead to bring together. Form into a disk, wrap in the plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Combine the cherries, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the cherries are juicy and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, 5 more minutes. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the juice into a small bowl; stir in the cornstarch until dissolved. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan and continue to simmer, stirring, until very thick, 6 to 8 more minutes. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the lemon juice and let cool.
• Divide the dough into 8 pieces and roll each into a ball. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each ball into a 6 1/2-inch round, using as little flour as possible. Stack the rounds between pieces of parchment paper and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let stand 5 minutes. Place 2 tablespoons cherry filling in the center of each round, then fold in half to enclose and crimp the edges to seal.
• Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet until a deep-fry thermometer registers 360 degrees F. Fry the pies in 2 batches, turning once, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
