Madeleines
![]() I finally broke down and bought a Madeleine pan. I have always wanted to make Madeleines. I have no idea why - it is probably the cool scalloped pan. I love the pan!!! Anyhow, if you are talking about a dainty cookie with lots of class and sophistication - you are probably talking about Medeleines. An easy cookie that doesn't take long to make and the final result is delicious. I made a batch for the Thanksgiving table. They were awesome! This recipe is from the January 2000 Bon Appetit. I didn't make any adjustments to the recipe. If you follow the steps - everything will end up as it should. 2 large eggs 2/3 cup sugar 1 tsp. vanilla 1/2 tsp. grated lemon peel 1 pinch of salt 1 cup all-purpose flour 10 TBS. unsalted butter, melted and then cooled slightly powered sugar Preheat oven to 375. Generously spray a madeleine pan with non-stick cooking spray. Using an electric mixer, beat eggs and 2/3 cup sugar in large bowl just to blend. Beat in vanilla, lemon peel and salt. Add flour; beat just until blended. Gradually add cooled melted butter in a steady stream, beating just until blended. Spoon 1 TBS. batter into each indentation in pan. Bake until puffed and brown, about 10-16 minutes. Cool 5 minutes. Gently remove from pan. Repeat process, buttering and flouring pan before each batch. (Can be made 1 day ahead). Dust the cookies with powdered sugar.
