Pina Colada Madeleine Cookies Recipes

MADELEINE COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the sugar and grated lemon peel together in a large bowl, and set the mixture aside for about an hour.
• Pour the eggs into the mixture, and mix them together.
• Add milk, and mix until blended.
• Mix in flour, baking powder and vanilla sugar.
• Add the softened butter, and mix until blended.
• Cover the bowl and put it in the fridge for about an hour. (Personally, I don't think this step is necessary.)
• You'd better get a non-stick Madeleine mold, and you need to butter and flour the pan before pouring the batter into it. Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Spoon the batter into the pan. Fill about 2/3 of the pan. Bake until puffed and brown (13-15 min).
• Remove the cookies from the pan when they are still hot. Let them cool on a cooling rack.
• You can slightly butter and flour the pan again for the next batch.
• Dust the cookies with icing sugar before serving.

MADELEINES II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour twenty-four 3-inch Madeleine molds.
• In a medium bowl beat eggs, vanilla and lemon zest with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar. Beat for 5 to 7 minutes or until thick and satiny.
• Sift together the flour and baking powder. Sift one-fourth of the flour mixture over the egg mixture, gently fold in. Fold in the remaining flour by fourths. Then fold in the melted and cooled butter. Spoon batter into the prepared molds, filling 3/4 full.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are golden and the top s spring back. Cool in molds on a rack for 1 minute. Loosen cookies with a knife. Invert cookies onto a rack and cool. Sift confectioners' sugar over the tops or melt semi-sweet chocolate chips and dip the tips in the chocolate. Store in an airtight container.

PINA COLADA MADELEINE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the cake mix in a mixing bowl and add the butter. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the eggs, milk and rum. Beat with a wooden spoon until you form a smooth batter. Fold in coconut until evenly distributed.
• Spray 2 madeleine molds with nonstick cooking spray. Using a tablespoon, drop the batter into the molds filling halfway. If you don't have madeleine molds, you may drop the batter on an ungreased baking pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the cookies are nicely browned. Let cool in the pan then turn out onto a platter. Repeat method with remaining batter.

PINA COLADA SUNDAE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat the butter. Add the sugar and ginger. Stir together until the sugar dissolves. Continue to stir until the sugar starts turning light brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the pineapple chunks, toss to coat, and saute for 2 to 3 minutes to warm the pineapple through.
• Scoop ice cream into each of 4 ice cream dishes.
• Remove the pan from the heat, and add the rum. Using a kitchen torch or igniter, flame the rum, tossing pineapple quickly to extinguish the flames.
• Pour the pineapple flambe over the ice cream, garnish with a maraschino cherry and a ginger cookie.
