These Chocolate Dipped Lemon Madeleines have a nice lemon flavor, slightly crispy on the outside and insanely spongy and soft on the inside. They are then dipped in melted chocolate to create delicious butter cakes.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¾ cup cane sugar
8 tbsp unsalted butter 1 stick of butter, melted
2 eggs at room temperature
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
1, 2.64 oz Your Favorite Chocolate Bar

Instructions

Mix Wet Ingredients. Melt the butter in a medium bowl. Add the vanilla extract, sugar, honey, lemon juice, zest, and eggs. Whisk to combine.
Fold in Dry Ingredients. Add flour, baking powder, and salt to the same bowl and mix with a spatula to combine.
Chill Dough. Cover with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Do not skip this step.
Prepare Madeleine Pans. Brush the pan indentations with 2 tbsp of melted butter. Sift about 1/4 cup of flour on top, and then tap the pans to remove any excess flour.
Add Dough to Pans. After the dough has chilled, place a plastic bag in a cup and wrap it around the edges.
Spoon the chilled dough inside the bag, and then grab the outside of the bag to push down the dough.
Cut one end of the bag and pipe the dough right into the indentations of the prepared pans. Do not overfill the wells with too much dough.
Bake. Preheat the oven to 400°F for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown.
These cookies burn easily, so we recommend checking them at 9 minutes and then deciding if they need to stay in an extra minute or two.
Cool. Once the madeleines are done baking, let them cool for 5 minutes, and then tap the long-edge side of the pan with the rounded edge of the cookies pointing downward. Gently tap until all the cookies slide off.
Dip Cookies in Chocolate & Enjoy. Continue cooling the cookies on a wire rack and melt the chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave stirring in increments until melted.
Dip the rounded edge of each cookie into the chocolate, and then lay the madeleines back onto the wire rack to allow the chocolate to harden before enjoying!
