Time 30m

Yield makes 12 (or 24 mini madeleines)

Number Of Ingredients 9

100g butter , plus extra for the tin
85g plain flour
15g cocoa powder
2 eggs , separated
2 tsp honey
1 ½ tbsp coffee granules
80g caster sugar
15g demerara sugar
25g white chocolate

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and butter a 12-hole madeleine tin or a 24-hole mini madeleine tin. In a small pan, heat the butter over a medium heat until frothy and golden with a nutty aroma. Leave to cool.
  • Sieve the flour and cocoa into a large bowl, then stir in the egg yolks, honey, coffee, melted butter and both sugars. Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then fold into the cocoa mix.
  • Spoon the mixture into the tin, half-filling each of the madeleine holes. Chill in the fridge for 1 hr.
  • Bake for 7 mins if using a 24-hole mini madeleine tin, or for 10-12 mins if using a 12-hole tin. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
  • Melt the white chocolate in the microwave in short bursts, then drizzle over the madeleines.
