Sift the flour over the egg mixture and fold in. Grease and flour a madeleine mold. Spoon 2 teaspoons into each mold (they will then be about 2/3 full) and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until light brown. Turn out of the mold and let cool. Dust with powdered sugar or dip halfway into melted chocolate.
