These little biscuits from France are characterized by incorporating in their ingredients, ground almonds, as the main basis of the mass.
For the purpose of this month I have chosen a slightly different version of the classic Financier, and I used ground hazelnuts instead of almonds. We also provide an excellent flavor combined with chocolate and chopped hazelnuts on top.
The financiers are usually oval or rectangular and are a typical dessert in France. In fact in any Boulangerie we can find an assortment of them. It is always a delight paseasrse by these bakeries with all its sweet temptations.
Recipe I present is from a French book dedicated to them and other sweet and savory tarts mini. series is Marabout Chef .
