I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my friands turned out flat and dense. They were still tasty, but not as light and airy as I was hoping for.

These friands were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overbaked them.

I'm not a big fan of pistachios, but I loved these friands. The chocolate flavor was really strong and the pistachios added a nice crunch.

These friands were a great way to use up some leftover egg whites. They were also a lot easier to make than I thought they would be.

I had some trouble getting the friands to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These friands were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good.
