    Serves: 24
    Cooking Time: 45 minutes

    Ingredients

    • Clover Farmstyle Butter, to grease
    • cake flour, to dust
    • Madeleines
    • 200g Clover Farmstyle Salted Butter, melted
    • 250g castor sugar
    • 6 eggs
    • 2 egg yolks
    • juice of 1 lemon
    • small pinch salt
    • 250g cake flour
    • 200g dark chocolate, broken into blocks
    • 250ml (1 cup) Clover Fresh Cream
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) castor sugar
    • zest of 1 Lime
    • icing sugar, to dust

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Prepare 2 madeleine pans by greasing with butter and dusting with flour. Set aside.

    2

    For the madeleines, melt the 200g Clover Farmstyle Salted Butter in a medium heat-proof measuring jug in the microwave. Allow to cool slightly. Set aside.

    3

    In a large bowl, whisk together the castor sugar, eggs, egg yolks, lemon juice and salt until pale and the mixture has slightly thickened. Sift in the flour and, using a wooden spoon, gently fold the together. Once the batter is smooth, add the melted butter and fold until combined.

    4

    Pour the batter into the prepared pans and fill each madeleine mould to about two thirds. Bake until golden and a skewer inserted into the madeleines comes out clean, 10 – 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before unmoulding and placing on a wire rack to cool completely.

    5

    Place the dark chocolate in a bowl set over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir the chocolate with a wooden spoon until melted. Remove from heat.

    6

    Take each cooled madeleine and dip into the chocolate, covering just the tip. Place on a wire rack to harden.

    7

    Whip the Clover Fresh Cream and castor sugar to soft peaks, then fold through the lime zest.

    8

    Dust the madeleines with icing sugar and serve with a side of lime cream for dipping.
