Hi, I'm Natasha Levitan for About.com Food. Today I'm going to show you how to make honey madeleine cookies.

Honey Madeleine Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need:

• 3/4 c. white flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp. honey
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 c. granulated sugar
• 1/4 c. confectioners sugar

Mix the Cookie Ingredients

Turn the heat to low, and in a small saucepan, melt the butter. Add honey to it and vanilla extract. Stir and let the mixture cool to room temperature. In a medium bowl, add the eggs and sugar and using a mixer beat them on high speed until the eggs are foamy and light in color. In a small bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt together.

Fold the Cookie Ingredients

Add your flour mixture into the egg mixture slowly to minimize the eggs deflating and mix together with a wooden paddle spoon until no flour is visible. Then, pour butter-honey mixture and continue mixing until all ingredients are combined.

Bake the Madeleine Cookies

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Brush your madeleine mold with melted butter then take a spoon of the batter and fill each mold to about 3/4 full. As the cooking will rise during the baking process, you don't want to overfill your molds so the cookies maintain their shape.

Place the mold on the center rack of the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the cookies have puffed up above the edge of the mold. When the edges turned golden brown take them out.

Serve the Madeleine Cookies

Flip the mold over your working surface and the cookies will fall out. Serve them warm with confectioners sugar or without.
