I had my first cannele the other day and was blown away by how good it was and am now determined to make them.  I like the look of the recipe you linked to and printed it.  Can you tell me the size of the molds you used and how many the recipe yielded?  I don't have any molds but I read on ChefSteps that you can use any number of different  molds.  They specifically mentioned Madeline pans and i have those so may try that.  If anyone else has a tried and true recipe I'd   be interested in hearing from you.  I do have Dorie Greenspan's Baking Chez Moi and she has a recipe in that book.  I'm excited to try these and if anyone else has some wisdom to impart I'm all ears.

As I remember. the recipe made 3 pans worth, i.e., 24 pieces.    You can also refrigerate the batter for a subsequent bake.

Thanks!  I read the 12 pages of another topic on cannelles and they said there are variations in quality between the silicone baking cups.  Do you know what brand yours is?

Years ago...1977-78...when I was working in restaurants to get money to go to grad school, I made these by the scores.  Buttering those fluted molds was a nightmare.

 

@suzilightning  Can you tell me how you cleaned the molds?  I have the proper Bordeau copper ones and I wash and dry them by hand between uses.  I read somewhere where someone said they never washed them, is that right?  I would think they'd get grungy.
