With a 1/4-cup measure form a crab mixture into slightly flattened rounds about 2 1/2 inches wide and 3/4-inch thick and gently coat crab cakes with cornflakes, transferring as coated to a wax-paper-lined baking sheet.

Put about 1/2 teaspoon butter on each crab cake and bake in middle of oven until crisp and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve crab cakes with tartar sauce.

Makes about 20 crab cakes.
