Brown Butter and Coconut Madeleines



We love Madeleines - the little French sponge cakes with the distinctive shell like shape. They are light, not too sweet, and go perfectly with a cup of tea. Sarah has baked a number of different flavours over the past couple of years (Almond Praline Madeleines and Honey and Vanilla Madeleines). We are looking forward to our trip to Paris in April - wonder what flavours we will discover.



Sarah made up a batch of Brown Butter and Coconut Madeleines over the weekend based on a recipe she found at Citrus and Candy. They are so light and delicious. The brown butter and coconut adds a lovely flavour to the madeleines. 



We packaged them in some cute little cake boxes that we found at Loft in Tokyo.

So Cute and Beautifully displayed. These cookies are so light and as you said PERFECT with a cup of tea. I have never heard of Brown Butter, is that just Butter with Brown Sugar?
