I have only two Madeleine molds but feel free to put all the dough balls into the molds if you have more than two. You will still have to bake it in two separate batches. This will speed up the preparation process.
Step 8: Press the dough balls with your fingers to fit the madeleine mold. The heat from your fingers will be enough to shape the dough onto the molds.
Make sure the dough does not go over the edges of the mold. Also, the dough will have a small bump on top so that it won’t be flat.

Step 9: Place the madeleine molds in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until slightly golden around the edges. The top of the cookies will be pale.
Step 10: While baking the cookies, add powdered and vanilla sugar to a large plate and mix until combined.
Step 11: Once you remove the cookies from the oven, remove them from the molds. Give them a gentle nudge with a knife or a fork, and they will pop out easily. Place them on the wire rack.
Step 12: Roll the cookies into the sugar mixture, and you can gently rub the sugar onto it so it sticks easily. Be careful since the cookies will be warm.
Repeat the process for the second batch of cookies. Grease and flour the molds and place the cookie dough balls into the molds (if you only have two molds). If you already have done that, place the molds in the oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, roll the cookies into the sugar mixture, and put them on the wire rack. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
