Orange Madeleines

These little treats are often enjoyed dusted with powdered sugar, or a light glaze made from fresh orange juice and confectioners' sugar, or topped with melted chocolate. The result is a charming, shell-shaped cake with a burst of citrus flavor that is a true delight for the senses.
