For 24 madeleines:

Preheat the oven to 180. C/ gas 4
Brush 2 madeleines tins with melted butter, dust with plain flour & invert the tins & tap out of excess.

Place the sugar, eggs & vanilla extract in a large bowl & whisk together for at least 5mn or until pale thick & able to hold a trail on the surface. Carefully sift the self-raising flour & cocoa powder over the mixture then fold it with a large spoon.
Pour the melted butter down the edge of the bowl & fold it in the quickly & gently.

Spoon 1 tablespoon of the mix into each of the madeleine moulds. 
Bake for 10mn, remove from the owen, transfer to a wire rack using a palette knife & leave to cool completely.

To make the topping mix together the Nutella, icing sugar & a touch of hot water to loosen the mixture slightly & spread over the tops of madeleines.
