I am lucky enough to have several vintage madeleine tins that I bought in a brocante at only €1 each! A FABULOUS entry into Tea Time Treats thanks, and lovely photos too!

Thank you so much! My egg never really got to 'mousse' state, but they still turned out light and airy. And I didn't have any oranges on hand, so I went with 1/2 tsp. vanilla. My husband said they were the forbidden lovechild of cornbread (texture) and a Danish shortbread cookie (flavor).<br /><br />Again- thank you for the post!

I made some for the first time a while back and flavoured them with cocoa and chilli, but I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be, so I might just try your recipe next.Choclettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00173996730095174268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-54437630684707394422013-01-14T15:22:37.238+00:002013-01-14T15:22:37.238+00:00I've been meaning to get round to making these...I've been meaning to get round to making these for ages.....since someone gave me the tin....now I will.

I was tempted to buy a second madeleine tin the other day because it made slightly larger madeleines than my existing tin. Can you have too many baking tins? I think my wife would say yes.

You could try using a bun tin first to see if you like making them, before parting with your cash.<br />The choccy biscuit thing wouldn't work for me.
