**Madeleines Eyes Halloween**
**Ingredients:**
– 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Green and black food coloring
– Mini chocolate chips
– Red gel icing
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a madeleine pan with butter or non-stick spray.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this dry mixture aside.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Gradually add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, stirring until well combined.
5. Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
6. Divide the batter in half. Add green food coloring to one half and black food coloring to the other half. Stir until the desired colors are reached.
7. Spoon the green batter into one side of each madeleine mold and the black batter into the other side.
8. Press a mini chocolate chip into the center of each madeleine to create the “eye.”
9. Bake the madeleines for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
10. Allow the madeleines to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Once the madeleines are cool, use the red gel icing to create “bloodshot” lines coming from the chocolate chip “eye.”
