Orange Madeleines

I've always love anything that is of chocolate or orange. Somehow, I will try recipes with these two ingredients if it comes to my knowledge. Since I started baking madeleines last week, I was thinking of baking orange or chocolate madeleines already. I found one recipe on Orange Madeleines, and decided to try it.
