# Ingredient List:
→ Madeleines
01 - 7 tbsp unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 7 tbsp granulated sugar
04 - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
05 - 7/8 cup all-purpose flour

→ Decoration
09 - 5 oz white chocolate, chopped
10 - Mermaid tail-shaped sprinkles or edible glitter
11 - Assorted sugar pearls
# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Generously butter a madeleine pan and dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
02 - Melt the butter in a small saucepan and set aside to cool slightly.
03 - Beat the eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until pale and thick, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract.
04 - Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold this into the egg mixture until just incorporated.
05 - Gradually fold in the melted butter until the batter is smooth.
06 - Divide the batter evenly into 3 to 4 small bowls. Tint each portion with a different food coloring gel until pastel shades form.
07 - Using a teaspoon, spoon small amounts of each colored batter into the madeleine cavities, swirling gently for a marbled effect.
08 - Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until puffed and edges are golden. Cool in the pan for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
09 - Once cooled, melt the white chocolate over simmering water in a heatproof bowl.
10 - Dip the tip of each madeleine into melted white chocolate, then immediately sprinkle with mermaid tail sprinkles, edible glitter, and sugar pearls. Place on parchment paper to set.
