Title: Orange-Walnut Madeleines
Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Nuts, Citrus
Yield: 2 Dozen

1/2 c Sugar
2 Egg yolks
1/2 c Butter; melted and cooled
1 ts Orange peel; finely shredded
1 tb Orange juice
1/2 ts Vanilla
1/2 c All-purpose flour
1/2 ts Baking powder
1/4 ts Ground cardamon
1/8 ts Baking soda
1/8 ts Salt
1/4 c Walnuts; finely chopped
2 Egg whites; slightly beaten
Powdered sugar

Grease and flour twenty-four 3" Madeleine molds. Set
molds aside. (Look at a kitchen specialty store for a
Madeleine pan with 8 or 12 shapes).

Beat sugar and egg yolks in a medium mixing bowl with
electric mixer on medium to high speed about 30 seconds
or till thoroughly mixed. Add melted butter, orange
peel, orange juice, and vanilla. Beat on low speed till
combined.

Sift together flour, baking powder, cardamon, baking
soda, and salt. Sift or sprinkle about one-fourth of the
flour mixture over the egg-yolk mixture. Gently fold in
the flour mixture. Repeat, sifting and folding in
one-fourth of the flour mixture at a time. Fold in nuts.
Gently stir in egg whites.

Spoon batter into prepared molds, filling each mold
about half full. Bake in a 375ºF/190ºC oven for 10 to 12
minutes or till edges are golden and tops spring back
when lightly touched. Cool cakes in molds for 1 minute.
Using the point of a knife, loosen cakes from mold;
invert cakes onto a wire rack. Remove molds and cook
cake completely on the rack.

Tightly cover and store at room temperature up to 3
days.

Just before serving, sift powdered sugar over tops.

Makes 24.
