1 cup ground almonds
6 egg whites
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup pecans, chopped1/2 cup confectioners/icing sugar
Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease 12 wells of 1 or 2 friand pans with butter or shortening. Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the batter into the pans. Bake for 25 minutes, until golden and firm. Remove pans from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Turn the friands out of the pan onto a wire rack and cool for an additional 45-55 minutes. Serve dusted with icing sugar, fruits, whipped cream, or ice cream.
Makes approximately 12 Friands
*These delicious treats are reminiscent of one of my favorite cookies. Chesapeake cookies are like chocolate chip cookies, except they have pecans in them. Sounds simple, but the combination of chocolate chips (or chunks) and chopped pecans is just sensational!*
