Chocolate and I have long been friends. As far as I'm concerned there is no greater indulgence than a cup of tea and a couple of squares of really good quality 70% cocoa chocolate. French champagne comes a close second, and while I'd love to be able to indulge in it every day, I don't think my liver, or my bank account would allow me. These gorgeous little mini loaf friands are for those days when you need a little extra cheer. Best eaten slightly warm, they are intensely chocolatey, studded with the tartness of raspberries and the slightest whisper of rosewater. Heaven!

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 celsius (350 fahrenheit) and lightly grease a 6 cavity silicone mini loaf tray.
Place the dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the coconut oil, chocolate, rosewater and egg whites and stir until well combined. Finally add the raspberries and fold through the mixture. You might also like to reserve a few to stud the top of the friands.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out cleanly. Turn out onto a wire wrack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
