Step 7: Bake
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the filled madeleine pan on the middle rack and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the tops of the madeleines spring back when lightly pressed. If you’re using a larger madeleine pan, baking times may vary slightly, so keep an eye on them.
Step 8: Cool and Serve
Once your chocolate chip madeleines are done baking, remove the pan from the oven and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, gently tap the pan to release the madeleines and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cooled madeleines with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
Tips for the Perfect Chocolate Chip Madeleines
- Butter Temperature: Make sure the butter is fully melted but not too hot when you add it to the batter. This will ensure that the batter is smooth and that the madeleines bake evenly.
- Chill the Batter: For an even fluffier texture and a more pronounced “bump” on the back of your madeleines, you can chill the batter in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.
- Baking Time: Keep an eye on your madeleines as they bake. They should have a light golden color, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean when done.
- Storage: These madeleines are best served fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you want to keep them for longer, you can freeze the madeleines and thaw them at room temperature when you’re ready to enjoy them.
Serving Suggestions

- Afternoon Tea: Pair them with your favorite cup of tea or coffee for a delightful afternoon snack.
