lemon glaze madeleines Magdalenas con glaze de limon)

If there is something that we love to bake here are madeleines  so that the other day there were complaints because they were very few !
Sometimes that happens. They assume that there will always be something baked or dessert.
 But  not always  I have the time.
Anyway, I hope to make madeleines again.(maybe tomorrow)
Here is the recipe  I used.
So good and delicious!
