I had sort of planned to post for the Click for Bri event and then, with the deadline pending, as we are having a sort of difficult weekend in the family, it felt even more necessary. A very positive event is happening for one woman, who most of us have never met, named Bri who writes Figs with Bri. Bri is fighting cancer and dozens/hundreds of people are helping to pay for her out of pocket costs.
For my entry, I knew I needed to include mangoes. My uncle, who lost his battle to brain cancer a few years ago, was not only a mango lover but a mango pusher; and we all loved him for it.
Recipe:
Mango Madeleines
Adapted from Cook and Eat's Persimmon Madeleines
Beat together:
2 eggs
3/8 cup sugar
Add:
3/8 cup mango preserves
1/2 t vanilla
Sift in:
1/2 cup plus 2 T and 2 t flour
1/2 t baking powder
Fold in
3 oz unsalted butter, melted and cooled
After 10 minutes, put into mini-madeleine molds or teaspoons. Less is more--do not over fill.

You've gotta love a mango pusher.
That image is quite arresting. Especially set against the blue and white of your china.
lovely flavor to add to a madeleine recipe! I love mangoes:)
This is really interesting. I practically grew up eating mangoes but never had it as a madeleine.
