Croissant

Ingredients

Steps

  1. 1Make a yeasted dough and chill it, then encase a slab of cold butter inside.
  2. 2Roll and fold the dough over the butter several times, chilling between folds, to build up many thin alternating layers.
  3. 3Roll the laminated dough thin and cut it into triangles, then shape each one into a crescent.
  4. 4Let the shaped croissants proof until puffy, then bake until deeply golden and flaky on the outside with a light, airy interior.
