It's very easy to make and very, very delicious.
It's made from simple ingredients: egg whites, butter, almond powder, flour, and sugar. But the most important thing that makes this cake irresistible is the burnt- butter. Just boil the butter until it turns golden brown, and you get the lovely nutty fragrance (you can use this method in other recipes too).
Financier pans can be varied (and that is the reason that I love to collect them, haha), small, large, deep, etc. You may have more or less of the financier and don't forget to adjust the baking time to suit yours.
