This is a traditional French recipe for mini cakes which were supposed to fuel busy bankers on the go! The form is perfect to fit into a breast pocket, but I would not recommend trying that with a good white shirt ;-)

Steps:
- 1. Melt the butter, let cool, then preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F
- 2. In a bowl, beat the egg whites with the sugar until just foamy
- 3. Add the cooled melted butter, almond flour and cornstarch
- 4. Pour the batter into financiers tins or mini cake tins (the batter should be only about 1/2 inch high in the form), muffin tins are also possible, as long as the batter doesn't fill more than about 1/2 inch of the tins
- 5. Bake for about 12 minutes, but watch well, if they brown too quickly, remove them from the oven earlier!
- 6. Let cool until you can get them out without breaking them. Eat warm or let cool completely on a rack.
