Mamie’s Madeleines

Quite a few years ago I assembled a family cookbook with recipes from members of our extended and blended family.  This recipe is from my Grandchildren's French Grandmother Laure Nikolic (and an excuse to include a picture of my much younger grandson).

Ingrédients
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Madeleine mold
 
Set oven   to 350°F. 
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Beat eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until light and foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar, beating constantly at high speed, and continue to beat until mixture is tripled in volume. Add flour and melted butter slowly.

Spoon a rounded tablespoon of batter into each mold.
Bake for 8 minutes until golden brown.
