FRENCH BUTTERCREAM
French buttercream may not be as popular as the Italian or Swiss variety, but it is just as light and creamy. Plus, it is richer and a deeper shade of pale yellow from extra egg yolks. It makes a great cake filling and frosting.

Steps:
- Place the whole eggs and yolks in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until the eggs are pale yellow and thick, about 5 minutes. (The eggs will hold an indent made with your finger for a few seconds.)
- Meanwhile, pour the sugar and 1/3 cup water in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and bring to the soft-ball stage, without stirring, 240 degrees F.
- Begin whipping the eggs again on medium-high speed and slowly drizzle in the hot syrup, aiming the syrup between the side of the bowl and the beaters. Continue to whip until both the bottom of the bowl and the mixture are cool, 10 to 15 minutes. The mixture should be thick, but will not form a peak at this point. Beat in the salt.
- While still beating on medium-high, add the butter, a few pieces at a time. As the butter is added, the buttercream may appear to thin out some, but it will thicken into firm peaks once all of the butter is added. Beat in the vanilla extract.
- Use right away or refrigerate in an airtight container overnight. The buttercream may need to be beaten again to smooth out before using.

Steps:
- For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

- For the filling: Beat the cream cheese in a clean mixer bowl with the paddle on medium speed until light and smooth, scraping the sides occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vanilla bean paste and eggs and beat until smooth. Add the melted butter and beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed to incorporate, and then beat on medium until light and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour over the cake layer and smooth the top with a spatula.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Grease, line and flour two 23cm/9in round pans.
- Sift the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and salt) together and set aside.
- Beat 100g softened butter for 3 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and beat another 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition.
- Add the flour mixture, 100g at a time, alternating with the milk and ending with the flour mixture. Add the vanilla and mix well. Pour evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or when a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Transfer cakes to a rack and cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the sides of the cake, unmold them and peel off the paper liner. Invert and cool to room temperature, right side up (These cooled cakes may be wrapped airtight and stored at room temperature overnight, or frozen up to two months).
- For the frosting, place 100g softened butter in a mixing bowl with 350g of the icing sugar. Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla and milk; mix well. Add half of the remaining icing sugar and mix, adding more until you reach the desired consistency to spread. You may not need all of the sugar specified.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter and flour 12 (3 inch) madeleine molds; set aside.
- Melt butter and let cool to room temperature.
- In a small mixing bowl, beat eggs, vanilla and salt at high speed until light.
- Beating constantly, gradually add sugar; and continue beating at high speed until mixture is thick and pale and ribbons form in bowl when beaters are lifted, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Sift flour into egg mixture 1/3 at a time, gently folding after each addition.
- Add lemon zest and pour melted butter around edge of batter. Quickly but gently fold butter into batter. Spoon batter into molds; it will mound slightly above tops.
- Bake 14 to 17 minutes, or until cakes are golden and the tops spring back when gently pressed with your fingertip.
- Use the tip of the knife to loosen madeleines from pan; invert onto rack. Immediately sprinkle warm cookies with granulated sugar. Madeleines are best eaten the day they're baked. Leftover madeleines are wonderful when dunked into coffee or tea.
- Variation: Chocolate Madeleines: Omit lemon zest. Increase sugar to 1/2 cup. Substitute 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder for 2 tablespoons of the flour; sift into batter with flour.
