Classic Madeleines

An authentic French madeleines recipe should produce little cakes that are light and quite spongy. 

Ingredients
 
* 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, melted until browned
* 2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 and 1/2 tsp lemon zest, finely grated
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 and 1/4 tsp baking powder
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 3 large eggs, at room temperature
* 3/4 cup granulated sugar
* 1/2 cup confectioners sugar, sifted, optional
Instructions: 
* Cut the butter & place in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Once the butter melted, reduce heat to low and continue cooking, until the solids sink to the bottom of the pan and turn golden brown, about 10 minutes.
* Remove from heat & pour browned butter into a small bowl. Stir the vanilla and lemon zest into the butter, then set aside to cool.
* In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder & salt. Set aside until needed.
* In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the eggs at medium speed while gradually adding the sugar. Once all of the sugar has been added, increase the speed to medium-high and continue whipping the mixture until it's very thick and pale in color, about 3 to 4 min. Turn the mixer off and, using a silicon spatula, fold in the flour mixture in three additions, stirring just until combined. Fold in the butter mixture.
* Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, and up to 2 days.
* 30 min before you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 190°C. Generously brush the molds of your madeleine pan with butter, then lightly dust with flour.
* Using a cookie scoop, spoon level scoops of the batter into the center of each mold. You don't need to spread the batter.
* Bake for 12 min until the "bellies" have risen and they're golden brown.
* Cool madeleines & enjoy
