- Next comes from the butter 20 g, which should be cut into small pieces and knead well with the dough, then leave the dough in a warm place for 2 hours and then knead it well, now he has another 2 hours be placed cold.
- Roll out the dough on a floured work surface into a square and distribute the remaining butter well distributed. Now insert all four corners in the middle and roll over them well, the same will be repeated now, say again fold all four corners to the middle and roll over it. Cold again for another 1 hour.
- Now you can always take a small piece of dough, roll out very thinly and cut triangles with the knife, then the croissant is formed, starting from the broad side starting to roll up and the croissants on both sides something bend.
- Now you can already on a laid out with baking paper in the preheated oven at 200 degrees for about 10 minutes and then to 180 degrees for another 5 minutes.
I know it's a lot of effort to prepare the dough, but the result is worth it.
