Equipment

  • Stand mixer with whisk attachment
  • Silicone spatula
  • Whisk
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Madeleine pan
  • Cling film

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1⅓ cup flour
  • 4 eggs room temperature
  • ¾ cup butter unsalted, melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tbsp espresso powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 8 oz dark chocolate melting wafers

Instructions
 

Making the madeleines

  • Sift or whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder, and espresso powder together in a mixing bowl and set aside.
  • In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment add the eggs and sugar and beat on medium-high until the mixture is pale is color and has at least tripled in volume. Then beat in the vanilla.
  • Using a rubber/silicone spatula gently fold in the flour mixture. Once incorporated gently fold in the melted butter. Lightly press cling film onto the top of the batter to prevent a skin from forming and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to a day.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F or gas mark 6.
  • Lightly spray your madeleine pan with baking spray or brush with a small amount of melted butter. Add a heaping tablespoon into each well. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until the bump springs back when touched gently. Remove from the oven and tap on the counter to loosen the madeleines. Transfer them to a cooling rack to finish cooling. It is important to remove the madeleines quickly as they might adhere to the pan if left to cool too long.

Adding the chocolate coating

  • Melt the chocolate and transfer into a narrow glass, this makes it easier for dipping.
  • Once the madeleines have cooled to room temperature dip whichever side you prefer to coat in chocolate.
