| Madeleines [Cookies] Recipe adapted from "My Paris Kitchen" by David Lebovitz INGREDIENTS For the Madeleines: | |
| 2 large | eggs, at room temperature |
| ½ cup | granulated sugar |
| 1 cup | all-purpose flour |
| 1½ teaspoon | baking powder |
| ½ teaspoon | salt |
| ½ teaspoon | vanilla extract |
| 10 tablespoons | unsalted butter |
| 1 tablespoon | honey |
| For Serving: | |
| Whipped cream | |
| Fresh strawberries | |
DIRECTIONS
1. Make the madeleines: Place the eggs in a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whip on medium-high speed, adding the sugar a little at a time, until all the sugar is incorporated. Turn the mixer to high and whisk until the eggs have doubled in volume, 3 to 5 minutes.
2. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and stir in the flour, baking powder, salt and vanilla extract. Cover the bowl and allow to rest for at least 30 minutes and up to an hour.
3. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. (Remove and reserve 2 tablespoons of the butter for brushing the pans.) Add the honey and cook, stirring until smooth, about 1 minute more. Remove from the heat and allow to cool, about 30 minutes.
4. Stir the butter and honey mixture (rewarm to liquefy if necessary) into the batter until smooth. Cover the batter and allow to rest for an additional 30 minutes or up to an hour.
5. To make the madeleines, preheat oven to 400°. In 2 madeleine molds, brush 16 indentations with the remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter. Using a tablespoon, fill each indentation in the molds three-quarters full with batter. Tap the pan on the counter to distribute the batter evenly. Bake until deep golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for 30 seconds, and then tip them out onto a cooling rack.
6. Serve the madeleines with the whipped cream and strawberries.
