Mocha Madeleines
October 4th, 2010
I love madeleines, they are absolutely adorable and perfect for any occasion. I made these madeleines for Eid Al-Fitr, my cousin (7 years old) loved them, and I hope you will, too :)
Let’s make Mocha Madeleines:
Grease and flour twenty-four 3-in. madeleine molds; set aside.
1, 2. Beat eggs, coffee crystals, and vanilla in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes.
3. Gradually beat in the 1 cup powdered sugar.
4. Beat for 5 to 7 minutes more or until thick and satiny.
5. Stir together flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
6. Sift one-fourth of the flour mixture over the egg mixture.
7. Gently fold in.
8. Fold in remaining flour by fourths.
9, 10. Fold in melted butter or margarine.
11. Spoon into prepared molds, filling three-fourths full.
12. Bake in a 375 °F (190 °C) oven for 10 to 12 minutes or till tops spring back when lightly touched. Cool in molds on a wire rack for 1 minute. Loosen cookies onto rack, molded side up, and cool.
13. Sift powdered sugar over tops, if desired. Store in freezer.

Notes and Tips
I found the recipe here but the main source is “Better Homes and Gardens Christmas Cookies, 1994 Issue”.
I used butter.
I didn’t need to keep the madeleines in freezer.
