6. Add the melted butter and stir until combined.

7. Sift in the cake flour and baking powder, then stir until smooth.

9. Remove from the refrigerator and transfer to a piping bag.

10. Pipe the batter into molds until 90% full, then bake in the middle rack of an oven preheated to 190°C for 13-15 minutes.
