Yes.

AB+ positive blood group has all the antigens, A, B as well as Rh factor, but no antibodies, hence it can recieve blood from any of the blood type since agglutination reaction will not happen due to absence of antibodies. Although, it can donate only to the AB+ type. Thus, your blood can be given to your friend having AB+ blood type.
