I love making Madeline’s. As far as I can tell it is a cross between a cookie and a cake. I have a plain Madeline recipe that you can find here.
This recipe is a basic recipe that I have added pistachios and white chocolate chips. Since the cookies are small, I coarsely chopped the nuts and chips.
In one batch I added some strawberry syrup to add another flavor but of course, that is optional.
My neighbor brought me chili in this bowl. She got some southern hospitality back. 
Strawberry syrup used.
These also make excellent gifts for that special friend or neighbor who is in need of a pick me up. Just a few in a small bag can change a person’s whole day.
