Chocolate Chip Madeleines Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP MADELEINES

Steps:

• Melt the butter and honey in a small saucepan and simmer until syrupy-about 8 minutes. Pour into a bowl and set aside to cool. Don't worry if the mixture splits slightly.
• Using an electric stand or hand-held mixer, whisk the eggs and sugar together for around 8 minutes or until the mixture has tripled in volume.
• Fold in the flour then the butter mixture and leave until cold. Stir the chopped chocolate into the cake mixture. Rest in the fridge for a couple of hours.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter and flour the madeleine molds. Put a teaspoonful of mixture into each mold and bake for about 15 minutes or until just firm to the touch and golden brown.
• Best served warm.

• 1. Sift together the flour, cocoa and the salt.
• 2. Place the eggs and the sugar in a large bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer and whisk until thick and lemon-colored. Fold in the flour, then melted butter.
• 3. Butter the madeleine pans, then spoon in the batter, filling each about three fourths full. Refrigerate the filled madeleine pans and the remaining batter for one hour.
• 4. Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• 5. Bake the madeleines just until they are firm and puffed, about 7 minutes. Turn them immediately from the molds, wipe out the molds, let cool and continue baking the madeleines until all of the batter is used. The madeleines are best when eaten slightly warm or at room temperature the same day they are made.

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.

CHOCOLATE MADELEINES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the two chocolates and the milk in a double boiler and cook over low heat until the chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly. Blend the dry ingredients together and set aside. Combine the chilled espresso and Madeira in a separate bowl.
• Cream the butter and sugar together in a mixer. Add the eggs, one at a time. Add the melted chocolate. Alternately add the flour and espresso mixtures. Mix until all the ingredients are incorporated.
• Coat a madeleine pan with the vegetable oil. Fill each scallop three-quarters full and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Leave the madeleines in the pan until completely cooled, then transfer to airtight containers for storing.

CHOCOLATE MADELEINES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Brush madeleine pans well with 4 tablespoons softened butter; refrigerate 5 minutes.
• In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt remaining 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Continue to cook until butter turns golden brown, being careful not to let the butter burn. Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh sieve into a small bowl; set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip eggs with granulated and brown sugars until light and thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, and stir on low speed until combined. Add vanilla and reserved browned butter; mix just until blended.
• Insert a 1/2-inch plain tip into a pastry bag and fill with batter. Pipe mounds of batter into prepared pans until each mold is full, mounding batter in the center of the molds but not filling to the edge. Alternatively, you can use a teaspoon to fill the molds with batter. Bake until madeleines are firm and a little mound is puffed up in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes. Madeleines are best eaten the same day they are baked.

MAIDA HEATTER'S CHOCOLATE MADELEINES

Steps:

• You will need two special madeleine pans, available in fine kitchen equipment shops, to prepare these cookies.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Lightly brush the cookie indentations of each pan with butter, using a pastry brush. Take care not to leave any unbuttered spots.
• Sift together the flour, cocoa, coffee, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• Place the 1/4 pound of butter in the bowl of an electric mixer and cream thoroughly. Beat in the vanilla, rum or Cognac and granulated sugar. Add the whole eggs and egg yolks and beat thoroughly. The mixture may take on a curdled look, but that is proper. Start beating on low speed while adding the dry ingredients. Beat only long enough to blend.
• Place a rounded teaspoon of the batter into each of the cookie indentations. Do not spread; it will settle itself. Place in the oven and bake about 12 minutes or until madeleines spring back when touched with the fingertips.
• Remove from the oven and invert onto a rack. Arrange them patterned side up on the rack. Using a sieve, dust lightly with confectioners' sugar.
