I would just call it a cake . My son loves this , my husband thinks it should be called a shell cake . Because it&#8217;s in a shell shape . Madeleine needs a special mould to bake , and it&#8217;s a shell like pan that you can get online or in a special store .<\/p>\n<p>I tried making this few years back , wasn&#8217;t so successful just because i didn&#8217;t butter and flour the pan generously . It still turned out good but i didn&#8217;t look right and wasn&#8217;t beautiful at all . This time i made sure that i buttered and floured the pan generously , and they turned out beautiful !! Madeleine is not hard to make , just have to give time to let it sit for an hour or so .<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Direction :\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>6 Tbsp. of butter , unsalted , melted and cooled<\/p>\n<p>2\/3 cup of all purpose flour<\/p>\n<p>3\/4 tsp. of baking powder<\/p>\n<p>pinch of salt<\/p>\n<p>1\/2 cup of sugar<\/p>\n<p>zest from 1 lemon<\/p>\n<p>1 tsp. of vanilla extract<\/p>\n<p>2 whole eggs , room temperature<\/p>\n<p>1.
