“FIND SOMETHING YOU’RE PASSIONATE ABOUT AND KEEP TREMENDOUSLY INTERESTED IN IT.” Julia Child
Today I am participating in a very special Valentine’s Day Celebration Event. Anna, from Crunchy Creamy Sweet has been hosting some amazing and creative bloggers with their favorite sweet recipes. I wanted to share a new twist on one of my most favorite cookies…..madeleines! As if madeleines were not the perfect sweet, soft little cookie already. Right? Well these were baked with a raspberry in each and a little bit of tart meyer lemon curd piped in!
Anna is such a dear blogging friend to me. She shares the most fabulous and unique desserts. But it’s her photography that can literally take my breath away. I mean jaw dropping, beautiful and stunning photos that really entice you and make you want that dessert right now. Just look at these Double Chocolate Breakfast Cookies with Zing. (Anyone who makes cookies for breakfast is okay in my book!) Or Thomas Keller’s Brownies. Or her Chocolate Molasses Bundt Cake.
But it’s her quality of character that I love the most. Anna is such a kind, generous and caring person. So full of grace. And this is so evident in the work that she does on her very lovely blog. You will understand instantly when you visit.
So to find the recipe for these Raspberry Madeleines with Meyer Lemon Curd; as well as other luscious Valentine treats, visit Anna at Crunchy, Creamy Sweet.
Thank you Anna! It’s always an honor and a pleasure to share with you!
Aww, sweet Anne! I am so lucky to call you a friend. And totally wish we lived closer so we could exchange our treats over cups of coffee
Thank you so much for a wonderful guest post. xoxo
Anna….I feel exactly the same way! You wouldn’t want me as a neighbor because I’d be knocking at your door all hours of the day or night to borrow your stuff and ask for photography advice! But coffee and treats would be nice! Thanks so much for inviting me to participate in your special Valentine’s event. I loved every minute of it! : )
I have never baked filled madeleines…can’t wait to try it, esp. when there’s lemon involved
Thanks Angie! And your red lentil and sundried tomato muffins look divine! I love savory baking, too! : )

Hey Darlin! I’ve listed this madeleines in my most recent post of Meyer Lemon recipes as one I’d like to try. Now that the market has Meyer lemon, it’s time to make these.
Filled madeleines? I’ve never had one, and love the idea. And what great flavors you’ve chosen. I love lemon, and will never turn down raspberry. Good stuff – thanks.
Thanks John! And your fennel salad looks so simple, refreshing and definitely a great change from lettuce! : )
These have to be one of the best looking madeleines I’ve seen, the filling is a brilliant idea!
Thanks Ms G….and your blueberry and caramelized porridge would be the perfect start to my day! : )
