Yield: 36 , 3-inch (8-cm) madeleines
1. Place the eggs and sugar in a large bowl, then using a whisk or electric
mixer, beat until lemon colored. Add the zest. Fold in the flour, then
butter.
2. Preheat the oven to 375 F (190C).
3. Refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes.
4. Butter the madeleine tins, spoon in the batter, filling each about
three-fourths full. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until madeleines are golden
brown.
5. Remove the madeleines from their tins as soon as they're baked and cool
them on a baking rack. Wash tins immediately with a stiff brush and plain
water. The madeleines are best eaten as soon as they're cooled. They may,
however, be stored for several days in an airtight container.
