These Copycat Starbucks Madeleines are light, buttery, and have just the right amount of sweetness. They're such an easy dupe for one of your coffeehouse favorites!
Preheat your oven to 375℉ (190 ℃) and grease your madeleine pan or mold very well.
With your hand or stand mixer, beat together the eggs, vanilla and salt. Begin at medium speed then quickly bring to a high speed. Beat until the mixture becomes light and slightly frothy.
2 large eggs, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Slowly add the sugar a little at a time. Mix for 3 to 5 minutes. The mixture should look frothy.
⅓ cup sugar
Lower the speed of your mixer and gently add in the flour, softened butter, and baking powder. Mix until everything is well combined.
¼ cup unsalted butter, ½ cup all purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Spoon the batter into your well greased madeleine pan. Bake for 14 to 17 minutes. You will know they are done when the tops spring back when you gently press on them.
