Good to know

Chef's tip

For an even meltier center 😋, freeze your chocolate squares before inserting them into the batter! They will melt more slowly during baking and stay nice and gooey inside 🤎✨

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Works very well, up to 2 months after baking in a freezer bag. The decoration may be affected.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keeps 2 to 3 days max in an airtight container at room temperature.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Baked and decorated madeleines keep very well the day before at room temperature.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Oven (a few minutes at 150°C) to soften the chocolate. Quick microwave possible, beware of drying out. Not in the air fryer.

Variations

Add sugar eyes or two small dots of dark chocolate.
Let the chocolate set for 30 minutes.
Butter and flour the pan if needed.

Mistakes to avoid

Pouring in hot butter: let it cool slightly.
Decorating warm madeleines: let them cool on a wire rack.
Eating before the chocolate sets: 30 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

How do you make mummy madeleines?

Make a cocoa batter, spoon some into the pan, add a square of dark chocolate, cover with batter, bake for 10 minutes at 180 °C, then drizzle melted white chocolate over the cooled madeleines.

How do you create the mummy effect?

Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave, then drizzle it over the madeleines to mimic mummy bandages. Add sugar eyes.

Why is there a square of chocolate inside?

Each madeleine is filled with a square of dark chocolate placed in the center of the batter, then covered with a little more batter. The crisp shell contrasts with the soft cake.

How long should the chocolate set?

Let the madeleines rest for 30 minutes after drizzling the white chocolate, so the chocolate hardens before serving.
