Healthy But Superior Madeleine Cookies Recipes

MADELEINES II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour twenty-four 3-inch Madeleine molds.
• In a medium bowl beat eggs, vanilla and lemon zest with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar. Beat for 5 to 7 minutes or until thick and satiny.
• Sift together the flour and baking powder. Sift one-fourth of the flour mixture over the egg mixture, gently fold in. Fold in the remaining flour by fourths. Then fold in the melted and cooled butter. Spoon batter into the prepared molds, filling 3/4 full.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are golden and the top s spring back. Cool in molds on a rack for 1 minute. Loosen cookies with a knife. Invert cookies onto a rack and cool. Sift confectioners' sugar over the tops or melt semi-sweet chocolate chips and dip the tips in the chocolate. Store in an airtight container.

MADELEINE COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the sugar and grated lemon peel together in a large bowl, and set the mixture aside for about an hour.
• Pour the eggs into the mixture, and mix them together.
• Add milk, and mix until blended.
• Mix in flour, baking powder and vanilla sugar.
• Add the softened butter, and mix until blended.
• Cover the bowl and put it in the fridge for about an hour. (Personally, I don't think this step is necessary.)
• You'd better get a non-stick Madeleine mold, and you need to butter and flour the pan before pouring the batter into it. Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Spoon the batter into the pan. Fill about 2/3 of the pan. Bake until puffed and brown (13-15 min).
• Remove the cookies from the pan when they are still hot. Let them cool on a cooling rack.
• You can slightly butter and flour the pan again for the next batch.
• Dust the cookies with icing sugar before serving.
