Servings: persons

10 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Plus More For The Pan
2/3 cups Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Coarse Salt
3 whole Eggs, Room Temperature
2 teaspoons Amaretto
1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste Or Vanilla Extract
1 cup Flour, Sifted
_____
FOR THE GLAZE:
1-1/4 cup Powdered Sugar, Sifted
3 Tablespoons Whole Milk (or Any Milk You Have On Hand, Lower Fat Milk Will Make A Thinner Glaze)
2 Tablespoons Amaretto
1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste Or Vanilla Extract

1
Over medium heat, melt the butter in a saucepan. Simmer gently until the color of the butter deepens slightly and there are small flecks of brown in the butter, about 5 minutes.
2
Set aside to cool to room temperature.
3
Beat the sugar, salt and eggs for several minutes until they are light yellow and thickened. Stir in the amaretto and vanilla bean paste.
4
Gently fold in the flour and butter in 3 additions each, alternating between the two. Refrigerate the batter for 45 minutes.
5
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Brush the madeleine pan with melted butter.
6
Fill the pans with 1 heaping tablespoon of dough per cookie. Bake for 12 minutes until the edges are light brown.
7
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Carefully remove from the pan and let cool completely on a cooling rack.
8
If making these in 2 batches, let the pan cool completely. Wipe out the cookie molds and re-coat with melted butter.
9
To make the glaze, whisk glaze ingredients until combined. Place the madeleines on a cooling rack placed on a cookie sheet. (This will catch the glaze and make for easier clean-up.) Spoon glaze over the cooled cookies.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
