Steps to Prepare
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cooled melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fully combined.
  4. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture and beat until light and fluffy.
  5. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt before gradually adding to the wet mixture and mix just until combined.
  6. Fold in the shredded coconut gently with a rubber spatula.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the edges are light golden and a tester comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in the pan for at least 15-20 minutes before lifting out and slicing into bars.
