I have never had a Madeleine cookie, they are not common around here. Are they worthwhile to bake yourself? Since they are so famous because of this reference, I think I should find one to taste.

They use a lot of butter and they go well with coffee. Yes. (Both Wikipedia [1] and the Joy of Cooking consider them cakes rather than cookies.)

Interesting, for some reason I translated the Croatian word "kolačić" for "small cake" to cookie. I guess cookie is not a small cake. In Croatian the expression is "madeleine kolačić".
