Gourmet Madeleine Cookies image

Delicious and soft French cookies. The recipe is from Bon Appetit Magazine (January 2000). "This cookie launched a thousand memories - and a literary masterpiece - for Marcel Proust. The group enjoys madeleines with tea, just as the narrator did in Swann's Way." Uses a special madeleine pan (a metal mold with scallop-shaped indentations, sold at cookware stores).

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I'll probably make them again, but I'll use less sugar next time.

I was a bit disappointed with these cookies. The texture was a bit dry, and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've tried many madeleine recipes in the past, but these are by far the best. They're so light and airy, and the lemon flavor is just perfect. I love that they're not too sweet, either. I'll definitely be making these again and again.
