Bite into a sweet and spooky delight with these Frankenstein-inspired lime madeleines! Perfectly eerie treats for a frightfully delicious Halloween soirée!
Fill your Pastry Bag with the batter and carefully pipe it into each wells of your Madeleine Tray.
REFRIGERATE
Place your tray in the fridge for 20 minutes. IMPORTANT: In order to get a nice Madeleine bump your dough needs to be really cold and your oven very hot. This will do the trick.
Preheat oven to 400F/200C.
BAKE!
Bake for 9 minutes at 400F/200C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your madeleines from 8 minutes). NOTE: After 5 minutes, you will notice a curve in the batter and after that the Madeleine Bump will grow.
Once your madeleines are out of the oven, unmold right away and place on a cooling rack to cool down.
NOTE: Wash your mold, then dry it in your turned off oven to remove any drops of water.
ASSEMBLY AND DECORATION
Gently brush your food dust into each Madeleine well.

Tempering chocolate is very easy: Place the 2/3 of your white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. NOTE: The base of the bowl should sit above the water without touching it. Allow the chocolate to melt so that it is smooth, shiny and glossy. IMPORTANT: When working with chocolate, be careful not to heat it above 115F/46C. Remove from the heat, place over a kitchen towel and allow the chocolate to cool down to 100F/37C. Add the remaining chocolate and stir until melted. Then brush it inside each well of Madeleine Tray.
8 oz white chocolate chips
Add right away the cooled madeleines on top pressing them down gently.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened so it is easy to peel the madeleines off the tray.
Now, melt the dark chocolate using the same method as the white chocolate. And transfer it to a narrow cup, leaving out about 2 table spoons to be placed in a Pastry Bag for drawing.
4 oz dark chocolate chips
Dip each Madeleine tops into the melted dark chocolate and return it to your cooling rack to allow the chocolate excess to drip.
Using your piping bag, add a bit of chocolate behind the googly eyes on each Madeleine. For Frankenstein: Draw a smile and a scar. And for the Bride: add a bit of chocolate behind the heart for the lips and the bat for the hair. As a finishing touch, usea food glitter spray for the hair. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
