Great madeleine recipe!!! I love that this is for a small amount as the madeleines don't have time to go stale before they all get eaten!!!! I used Pillsbury Softasilk flour because it is pre-sifted for light cakes, it worked out great and created light, crisp, and buttery madeleines! I also had to know what Manga was and who Kitchen Princess was, so I found this on the internet....The story follows Najika Kazami, an orphan and an excellent chef from Hokkaid�, and her arrival at Seika Academy, an escalator school. Not only does she plan to become a great chef like her deceased parents, but she also sets out to find her "Flan Prince", a boy that saved her from falling into a river and gave her a cup of flan with a silver spoon with the school's emblem on it. She promised him she would make the most delicious dessert in the world. I found out that each recipe that the Kitchen Princess makes is also published in the back of the magazines. Wouldn't Julia Child just love that such a beloved French recipe is being taught and celebrated in today's publications for kids to learn and enjoy!!! Thanks so much for posting, Leslieee!!!! I enjoyed learning about the Kitchen Princess and I love your recipe!!!
