I love chocolate. Just as much as I love martinis.
So I decided to participate in the Dessert a Day challenge from Donsuemor.
They sent me a box of Lemon Zest Madeleines and asked me to create a recipe using them.
Me, being the super lazy creative person that I am I came up with this creation all by myself.
Chocolate dipped Lemon Zest Madeleines.
First, you get out all the ingredients. (The madeleines and the chocolate).
Next you unwrap all the madeleines and lay them out on parchment paper.
Then you melt the chocolate in a glass bowl.
Dip the Lemon Zest Madeleines in the melted chocolate.
Place on the parchment paper and put in the fridge.
Once the chocolate has hardened,
the chocolate dipped Lemon Zest Madeleines are ready to eat.
Enjoy!
Thank you Donseumor for supplying me with the Lemon Zest Madeleines so my family had dessert.
I was provided free cookies for this post. All opinions and the recipe are my own.

Yum. Lemon Zest Madeleines?! I have to get my hands on some. I love lemon. I love madeleines. I’ve never had them together in one bite. OH, and I love chocolate. Thanks for sharing the awesomeness.

I love lemon and I love chocolate. This was the first time I had madeleines. Perfect combo all around.

I’m not a huge lemon dessert person but the chocolate you added would totally do it for me I think! Those look super yummy, & definitely easy!
The lemon in these actually wasn’t too strong.
Good for you….mine would’ve never made it to the pan. It would have gone straight to my mouth before even conjuring up some kind of neat recipe. How do I get yummy dessert places to send me some free sweets?!?!?

I got connected with this company through a lady in my city that is doing PR for the company.
Sounds yummy.

I hope you are sending me some. They look like they would fit in an envelope pretty easy.
Theresa recently posted..Get Ready to Leave the Nest Momma….
They would fit in an envelope but I fear the chocolate would melt.

says:
Those look really good! And I love both lemon and chocolate, so I’ll definitely try this.
P.S. It will be easier to send me some than to send Theresa some…you don’t have to worry about customs to send them to me.

Hmmm that does sound a lot easier to send them to you….

I’ve never heard of the, but if they are dipped in chocolate, I’d try them – looks yummy!

I would gobble these! I love almost all things dipped in chocolate, except licorice and ants.

I don’t think I would like chocolate dipped licorice or ants either.

Deliciousness! I’ve never had these cookies. They probably don’t sell them here, stupid Alaska!!

Thanks Galit! I love lemon and chocolate so I figured this was a winning recipe to put them together.
Oh, yum and how easy is that! My husband loves Madelines. I may have to try this.
