Madeleine
The first time I came across Madeleine was at Starbucks. Yes I know a lot of you may not be a Starbucks fan, but lets just say that I was glad I went to SB that particular day because I fell in love with this cute little spongey cake. When I was searching the internet far and wide for a recipe, I came across a story on the joy of baking. Story time: History dates their beginnings to the 18th century in the French town of Commercy, in the region of Lorraine. The story goes that a girl name Madeleine made them for Stanislaw Lezczynski, Duke of Lorraine, who loved them so much that he then gave some to his daughter, Marie, the wife of Louis XV. Their popularity grew from that point on and if we fast forward to today we know that they are now enjoyed in many countries around the globe
Before you make this pretty little cake, you need to get a Madeleine pan. I was honestly intimidated by the pan LOL! I liked the outcome, and definitely look forward to making these again :)
