Directions
A financier pronounced as finasje is a small French almond cake and baked in small finanicer moulds. It is light and moist. The name financier is said to be derived from the traditional rectangular mould which resembles a bar of gold. The cake became famous around the Paris stock exchange.
With a finance expert at home ,I thought why not bake it for him and he was mighty pleased with the taste and the texture. I think the almond meal in the cake makes a lot of difference. Since it has eggs , I did not taste these but these looked super cute, and loved photographing them. This recipe is from Joy of Baking

I have the little financiers mold in the stores and have it in my bucket list to buy. They looks so cute and love the recipe. I am now tempted to buy the mold soon and try it.
These do look cute and moist! Do you beat the egg whites till foamy or just whisked? My boys would love these.
