Instructions
- Add the eggs and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until smooth, pale yellow, and creamy, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Gently fold into the egg mixture.
- Fold in the melted butter.
- Transfer the batter to the refrigerator for about 1 hour (I don’t usually cover mine but use plastic wrap or a kitchen towel if you prefer to cover it).
- Towards the end of the chilling step, preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a madeleine pan with melted butter or nonstick cooking spray.
- Scoop the batter into the molds until they are ¾ full. Gently press the batter into the molds (wetting your hand helps prevent the batter from sticking).
- Bake until the madeleines are light brown, about 13 minutes.
- Transfer the madeleines to a wire rack to cool.
- If desired, garnish with a light dusting of powdered sugar or dip in melted chocolate.
Notes
- Storage: Store madeleines in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
- If you dip your madeleines in chocolate, you will want to store them in the refrigerator instead of at room temperature so the chocolate doesn’t melt.
- Once your madeleines are light brown, they’re ready to get removed from the oven. Pay close attention to make sure you don’t overcook them.
- You may be tempted to use baking soda instead of baking powder, but your madeleines won't come out in the consistency you want if you do.
