Steps:
- Heat oven to 450°F. On lightly floured work surface, unroll and stack pie crusts one on top of the other. Roll to 17x12-inch rectangle. Fit crust into ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan, pressing firmly into corners and sides. Fold extra crust under, even with edges of pan. Using fork, prick all over bottom and sides.
- Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown and completely baked. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 30 minutes.
- In 3-quart saucepan, mix granulated sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in water, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons lime zest, the lemon juice and lime juice until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat. Heat to boiling; boil 1 minute, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly and thickened. Remove from heat.
- In small bowl, beat egg yolks with whisk. Gradually beat about 1/2 cup hot mixture into egg yolks. Gradually stir yolk mixture into hot mixture in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to gently boil. Cook 2 minutes longer, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in butter. Pour over cooled baked crust. Cool at room temperature 15 minutes, then cover filling with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or until set.
- When ready to serve, remove plastic wrap from filling. Cut pie into 4 rows by 4 rows. In chilled medium bowl, beat Topping ingredients with electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Spoon topping into decorating bag fitted with 1/2-inch star piping tip. In center of each piece, apply steady pressure to bag while squeezing, and pipe in tight circle to make rosette flower about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Stop squeezing, and quickly lift bag off. Garnish rosettes with 2 teaspoons lime zest. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

Steps:
- Pate Sucree: Pulse flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Pulse in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Pulse in egg yolk. With machine running, add ice water in a slow, steady stream just until dough holds together. Turn dough out onto a work surface; shape into a disk and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
- Streusel: Whisk together confectioners' sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9 1/2- or 10-inch pie dish (about 1 1/2 inches deep). Using kitchen shears or a paring knife, trim to a 1-inch overhang; fold under. Crimp edges as desired. Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Freeze 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in lower third. Line dough with parchment, pressing it into corners and edges; fill with dried beans or rice. Bake, covered with foil, 20 minutes. Remove beans or rice and parchment (keep edges covered with foil). Bake until pale golden brown, 12 to 16 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.
- Filling: In a medium bowl, gently toss together plums, granulated sugar, and salt; let stand 15 minutes. Spread 2 tablespoons creme fraiche onto bottom of crust; sprinkle with one-third of streusel. Arrange plums on top; spread or dot with remaining 3 tablespoons creme fraiche. Sprinkle with remaining streusel.
- Bake until creme fraiche is bubbling and streusel is golden brown, about 50 minutes (if edges of crust are browning too quickly, tent with foil). Transfer to a wire rack and let cool 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

PLUM-BLACKBERRY STREUSEL PIE
Beneath a humble, oaty streusel topping lies a sleek, inky jumble of plums and blackberries-talk about a delicious contrast. A combination of cornstarch and tapioca in the filling helps to keep the colors of the fruit true and to set up their juices nicely without becoming too thick.
