These madeleines were very dense. I think I would have preferred them with a lighter texture.

These madeleines are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with less sugar.

The madeleines were a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter to the batter.

I was skeptical about adding spinach to madeleines, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. The spinach flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the other ingredients. The madeleines were light and fluffy, and they had a nice golden brown
