Sometimes, after an especially rough/terrific day I go into the food store and treat myself to a box of Entenmann’s Madeleines. And this may sound cheap, but I am always so aggravated to spend $5.99 for 1 box and thus thought ‘Hey, you can bake them yourself. I did a little google search, picked up a recipe here, put on my apron, and thought ‘viva la france!’ {However; before I go any further, I do want you to know – Madeleines are not an easy bake task.
