Chocolate Madeleines
These Chocolate Madeleines are like a cross between a cake, cookie, and brownie. They are buttery, light, and not overly sweet. Coat them with dark chocolate for the ultimate chocolate treat.
Servings: -14 madeleines
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (113 gr) unsalted butter, melted, at 40-50°C
- 2 (110 gr) eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup (100 gr) castor sugar
- 2 tsp (15 gr) honey, optional
- 3/4 cup (90 gr) cake flour
- 1/4 cup (30 gr) cocoa powder
- 1 tsp (4 gr) baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Dark Chocolate Shell
- 3/4 cup (125 gr) chopped dark chocolate
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add eggs, castor sugar, and honey. Using a whisk, mix them lightly for 3-4 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved.
- Sift in cake flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
- Add in melted butter and whisk until well incorporated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the batter for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400℉/200℃. Grease a non-stick madeleine pan with butter. If you are not using a non-stick pan, grease the pan with butter and dust the wells with flour lightly.
- Remove the batter from the fridge. Using a spatula, mix to loosen the batter and remove the air bubbles.
- Transfer the batter into a piping bag and pipe the batter into the molds until 80-90% full. You can also alternatively spoon the batter into the molds.
- Place the filled madeleine pan into the preheated oven and immediately reduce the oven temperature to 350℉/180℃. Bake for 10-13 minutes or until they have risen.
- Remove madeleines from the pan immediately and cool completely on a cooling rack.
- Melt dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Make sure your pan is washed and clean. Pour 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate into each cavity and spread slightly. Place the madeleines over the melted chocolate.
- Freeze for 30 minutes or until the chocolate is hardened. Slide them off. If they still stick to the pan, pop them in the freezer for another 5 minutes.
