Madeleines are one of my favorite things to bake, and making a batch is really easy as you need to make the batter in advance, and bake it from chilled. Once ready the batter can safely be kept in the fridge for a few days, and the cakes only take a about 10 minutes to bake, prep ahead at its best!

7. Chocolate Chip Madeleines
Both baking and eating are so easy. This petit cake is famous because of the episode of madeleines by French writer Marcel Proust. And this is one of the first desserts I learned at the French cooking school, meaning this is a basic traditional French recipe.
