Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 oz Semi-sweet chocolate -- coarsely chopped
3/4 c Unsalted Butter -- melted & cooled
1 1/4 c Sifted Cake Flour
1/2 t Baking powder
1/4 t Salt
3 Eggs -- room temp
1 t Vanilla
2/3 c Sugar

Preheat oven to 350 deg. Butter 30 madeleine molds. Melt chocolate in
top of double boiler set over hot water. Stir in butter. Mix together
flour, baking powder and salt. Beat eggs in large bowl of electric mixer
until light and lemon colored; add vanilla. Gradually add sugar, beating
constantly at high speed 5 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and beat until
mixture has quadrupled in volume, about 5 minutes. Gently fold in flour
mixture, then chocolate. Place 1 tablespoon batter in center of each
mold. Bake exactly 12 minutes. (Madeleines should be moist and fudgy in
center.) Cool on rack. Dust with powdered sugar before serving. (Can be
prepared 1 day ahead. Store in airtight container.)
