lemon glaze madeleines Magdalenas con glaze de limon)








If there is something that we love to bake here are madeleines  so that the other day there were complaints because they were very few !
Sometimes that happens. They assume that there will always be something baked or dessert.
 But  not always  I have the time.
Anyway, I hope to make madeleines again.(maybe tomorrow)
Here is the recipe  I used.
So good and delicious!

plus extra for greasing


Lemon glaze

Take a large spoonful of the butter and add this to a small bowl along with the butter, mixing them to lighten the butter. Pour the butter mixture into the batter and gently fold together to combine.

To make the lemon glaze

 You don't need spread it out, as this will happens as the madeleines bake. 
Bake for 10 minutes until the edges have started to brown. Remove from the oven and turn out onto a wire rack.
 Let cool for 10 minutes before dipping into the glaze. Allow the excesss to drip back into the bowl before setting onto the wire rack, set over a piece of parchment paper to set.
