A Mid-Week New Recipe For Us! πŸ“πŸ«πŸš

Published 2 months agoΒ β€’Β 3 min read

Hi Reader!

I wanted to send this recipe out on a Wednesday so you'd have time to get your madeleine pans for this weekend (if you don't already have some!).

If you’ve ever struggled to get that iconic "hump" on your Madeleines, I have the 4-step solution for you: A cold batter, a hot oven, chilled madeleine pan and an overnight rest (not in this order!).

Why these are fab:

  • The "Moisture Seal": Half are dipped in dark chocolate and half in a fresh strawberry glaze. The coating traps the moisture in, so they stay soft for days. Optional, but fun.
  • One-Bowl Easy: No mixer required.
  • The Pan: The Bellemain non-stick is the one to trust for those perfect ridges (and zero sticking).

Yesterday I made my Chocolate Guinness Cake with Chocolate Malted Buttercream and I can tell you, this cake is and always will be MAGIC. I took it to my mom and dad's house and forgot the vanilla ice cream so we served it with butter pecan and it was honestly fab. Scroll below for a photo, plus my summer garden and my favorite salad (that I can't stop making at home!).

I hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday!
