These were a bit too dry for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll add a little bit of butter to the batter next time.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

These florentines were absolutely delicious! The combination of the nutty flavor of the almonds and the sweetness of the chocolate was perfect. They were also very easy to make, and I loved that I could use up some of my leftover egg whites.
