I'm going to go ahead and throw out an apology for the lack of posting. I'm on a critical care rotation and Jake is doing cardiology. They're both very demanding. I leave the house around 6:30am and I usually don't get home til about 10pm. Jake's schedule is very similar. There isn't much cooking going on these days. Look for a return to life at the end of this month when I get a break.

Chocolate Madelines 1 [JG]


History:
Madelines are fun. Like little cookies. I think I put up the recipe for Blueberry Madelines with a Lemon Curd. If not let me know. But here is a chocolate version.

1/2 cup butter
35 grams cooking chocolate
3 eggs
106 grams white sugar
45 grams brown sugar
137 grams cake flour
9 grams baking powder
21 grams cocoa powder

Melt the butter and cooking chocolate together in a double boiler. Whisk the eggs and sugars together. Fold in the dry [flour, cocoa, and baking powder] in three parts to the egg/sugar mixture. Folding is key to try and keep the fluffy, lightness to the Madeline. Taper a bit of the chocolate/butter mixture, and again fold in. Batch 1 is cooking now, but I split it up.... 1/2 went in the over at 375 for 12 minutes immediately. The other half went into the fridge to chill prior to baking. I'll let you know how the taste test goes.
