Citrus Madeleines
Gobel Madeleine Pan
Great minds think alike. Imagine our surprise, to find in the Winter 2013 edition of Food and Drink Magazine, an article about Madeleines. We were planning to tell you about the traditional French cookie made in the Madeleine pan, as well. Madeleines are small, traditional cakes originating in northeastern France, baked in pans with shell-shaped depressions, with a flavour similar to (but lighter than) pound cake.
Enjoyed best with tea or coffee. Get baking.
