chocolate madeleines
May 31, 2007 at 12:54 am | Posted in Cakes, Chocolate | 12 Commentsso far, donna hay hasn’t disappointed. these are spongy shells with a sufficiently moist crumb. i also like the fact that most of her recipes do not require many ingredients.
from donna hay’s simple essentials: chocolate
2 eggs
1/3 cup caster sugar
1/3 cup plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp cocoa powder
60g butter, melted
preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius. place the eggs and sugar in a bowl and whisk to combine. sift the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder over the egg mixture and fold through with the melted butter. spoon the mixture into greased large madeleine tins until two-thirds full. bake for 10 minutes or until the madeleines are set. makes 12.

Hi, may I know where you bought your madeleine pans from, and how much they cost? I’ve been looking for them, but could only find the silicon ones from PH…

is it necessary to melt the butter? if yes do u melt it over a pan in boiling water? and 1/3 cup of flour and sugar is around how heavy?

yes, it’s necessary. just zap it in the microwave for around 30 seconds. 1/3 cup is around 75g, but it’s better to measure in cups because 1/3 cup of flour and 1/3 cup of sugar are of different weights.
