Review Detail

I've been craving flaky, buttery croissants ever since they were nixed from my diet - and this recipe totally satiated that desire! Flaky and delicately crispy on the outside, airy and a little chewy on the inside - it was bliss. The whole dozen was gone in 24 hours.

I'd never made a laminated dough before, but your instructions were perfect and fairly easy to follow. I used shortening and butter from Earth Balance, and it worked well. I failed to notice the butter was salted however, so they were a little too salty - next time I'll reduce or just eliminate the added salt.

Thank you so much for this comprehensive and super successful recipe! I loved reading it and making it!
