A week ago I made madeleine cookies for the first time, and i have to say they came out pretty good. WELL. Sorry. Excuse the bad grammar.
Anyway, not much to say about them, so I'll just give the recipe:

Almond Madeleine Cookies Drizzled With Chocolate
(adapted from Technicolor Kitchen

COOKIES:
2 large eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1⁄3 cup all-purpose flour, sifted twice after measuring
3 tablespoons almond meal (or finely ground almonds)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled



1. Preheat oven to 375ºF. Generously butter and flour 12 molds in a madeleine pan.
2. In the bowl of a standing mixer, combine eggs, sugar and salt. Beat on medium speed until pale, thick and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes. Mix in vanilla and almond extracts.
3. On low speed, mix in the sifted flour and almond meal until just incorporated. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the melted butter until blended.
4. Fill each mold almost completely full. Bake the madeleines until the tops spring back when lightly touched, 10 to 12 minutes.
Cool in pan for 2 minutes. Remove madeleines from pan and allow them cool completely on cooling rack.



CHOCOLATE TOPPING:
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 tbsp. butter

1. Put a saucepan on stove on medium heat.
2. Put chocolate chips and butter into pan to melt, stirring constantly. Once everything is completely melted, remove from heat.
3. Pour, drip, drizzle, do whatever you please with it on the madeleines. The possibilities are endless.

I'm definitely going to experiment more with madeleines in the future. They're so good and so simple its crazy!

Peace. Love. Madeleines.
