Coconut Madeleines

==About==
Barefoot in Paris recipe from Ina Garten
==Ingredients==
1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter, to grease 
the pans, plus 1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Confectioners' sugar, optional
==Directions==
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Thoroughly butter and flour the madeleine pans.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the
eggs, sugar, and vanilla on medium speed for 3 minutes, or until light
yellow and fluffy. Add 1/4 pound of butter and mix. Sift together the flour,
cornstarch, baking powder, and salt, and stir into the batter with a rubber
spatula. Stir in the coconut.
With a soup spoon, drop the batter into the pans, filling each shell almost
full. Bake the madeleines for 10 to 12 minutes, until they spring back when
pressed. Tap the madeleines out onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper
and allow to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired.
