1. Do these have to be made same day? I would like to make a day or two ahead as I don’t have time to bake the days of upcoming parties.

2. And I dipped them in chocolate and let them sit in the fridge for 10 minutes to harden up. Looks like I'll need 3 dozen more for Xmas day now!

3. Made a small batch today (cut the recipe in half). I was experimenting with using cake flour instead of all purpose flour. They seemed to be a little more moist inside and rose a little bit more. I'm quite pleased using cake flour. I baked these at 350 deg for 11 minutes too.

1. Ok here you go, after 3 tries, my wife and I came up with these small changes that make a huge difference in the Madeleines... first of all you should cream the egg and sugar together until pale ribons form, then finish the recipe as stated except add 1 tbl butter and raise the temp of your oven to 400 degrees reduce the cooking time to 9 minutes and turn your product around after 5 minutes. now they are straight from Antibes, France... ENJOY!!!

2. Great Recipe! I find that 13 minutes in the oven is definitely the sweet spot! Cookies taste great!! I also added a bit of lemon juice when adding the lemon zest.

3. THANK YOU so much for sharing this recipe! I've searched and searched for the perfect Madeleine recipe and it ends here! Crispy on the outside and sponge like cake in the middle. Perfectly delicious! Not only that, they are very easy to make. From prep to bake, it took less than 20 minutes! The best part is, most of us already have all the ingredients on hand. Definitely a keeper!

5. Thank you for this recipe! I made madeleines for the first time yesterday and they turned out wonderful. The recipe was enough for 24 cookies. I can't believe how easy these are to make; might be the easiest recipe I've tried yet!

1. I added 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest and a 1/2 tsp Ginger. I didn’t add Salt, but I used Salted Butter, and I didn’t bother to flour the Madeleine Molds - the cookies came out fine! They were delicious! Easy to make, and as good as I remember my Mom making them!!!
