Ingredients
Scale
- 500g all-purpose flour
- 10g salt
- 10g sugar
- 10g active dry yeast
- 300ml cold water
- 250g unsalted butter (for laminating)
- 200g dark chocolate (chopped)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar, and active dry yeast.
- Gradually mix in cold water until a dough forms. Knead for about 10 minutes and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle and place cold butter in the center. Fold the dough over the butter and roll it out again. Repeat this folding and rolling process three times, chilling between folds.
- Roll out the dough into a large rectangle once more and cut it into triangles. Place chopped chocolate at the base of each triangle and roll tightly towards the tip to form croissants.
- Allow them to proof for about 1 hour until doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F), brush with egg wash, and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
