Title: CHOCOLATE MADELEINES
Categories: Cookies, Personal
Yield: 24 servings

2 Eggs
1/2 c Sugar
1 ts Grated lemon rind; OR
2 ts Grated orange rind
1 ts Vanilla extract
1/4 ts Salt
2/3 c All-purpose flour
1/3 c Unsweetened cocoa
8 tb Butter; melted
-cooled slightly, plus
4 tb Butter; softened

PREHEAT OVEN TO 400F. Smear 1/2 teaspoon softened butter over the
inside of each madeleine form. Be sure to completely cover with
butter–don’t leave spots. Combine the eggs, sugar and lemon or
orange rind in a large mixing bowl, and stir them together. Set in a
pan of simmering water and stir until the egg mixture is very warm to
your finger. Remove from the heat and beat with a mixer at high speed
until fluffy, pale yellow, and tripled in volume, about 3 minutes.
Add the vanilla and salt. Dump the flour and cocoa into a sifter or
strainer. Sift once, return to sifter or strainer and sprinkle half
of it over the egg mixture, and fold it in. Pour in 8 tablespoons of
butter and sprinkle on the remaining flour, and fold gently just
until the batter is mixed. Spoon a generous tablespoon of batter into
each prepared mold; do not spread it evenly; it will level itself in
the oven. Bake for about 10 minutes, until the edges of the cakes are
golden and they lift easily from the molds. (If you have only 1 pan,
and can bake only 12 at a time, let the mold cool, wipe it out,
grease with butter, then refill with batter and bake again.) Remove
from the oven, slipping the tines of a table fork under each cookie
to free it, and transfer the madeleines to a rack to cool. Serve
within a few hours, or wrap airtight and freeze. Serve plain, or
sprinkle the ribbed side with confectioners’ sugar.

Yield: 8 Dozen

2 c Crisco
2 c White sugar
2 c Brown sugar
4 Eggs
2 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 c Chocolate chips
2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Baking powder
4 c Flour
4 c Rice krispies
3 c Rolled oats
2 c Coconut
1 ts Salt
1 c Chopped pecans

recipe leona davis submitted by marina #1434

Directions: cream crisco, brown sugar, white sugar, 4
beaten eggs, and vanilla together. In a seperate bowl,
combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Mix dry ingedients to blend. Add, rice krispies,
rolled oats, coconut, pecans and chocolate chips.

Begin adding dry ingredients to creamed crisco
mixture, this mixture will get stiff, and unless you
have dough hooks, it will become necessary to mix by
hand.If needed add a Tablespoon of water to moisten
just a bit After you have added all ingredients and
they are well blended. roll dough into small to med
balls and place on cookie sheet. Flatten dough with
fork, and Bake at 325 F. for 8 to 10 minutes.

NOTE: this makes at least 8 doz. cookies. I have made
the recipe and refrigerated dough during the
holidays.( great for those of us who like hot cookies
and milk. I also have cut recipe in half and that
works well for me. This recipe is quite old and given
to me by an aunt of 76 years old. When she said by
hand after working in some of the dry ingredients she
means BY HAND, said get right in there and toss the
dough around blending it well.
