Croissants

Day 54 Recipe 34

I can not believe that I just made croissants!! YIPEE!! They came out so flaky and yummy I just can not believe it. There are several recipes in this cookbook that are called Master Recipes and croissants are one of them. The book says, "Mastering the making of croissant pastry is considered a great achievement in the baking world." I was so excited when they came out of the oven!! I was a little surprised by the recipe. I thought it would be pretty similar to the puff pastry, but the croissant dough had yeast in it. They were very time consuming to make... I started at 10 this morning and we had hot croissants at 7 tonight. But they were worth the wait!!
