Hello all.  Shan and I have had a busy day

We started with our 2nd pastry class - -  we made croissants and pain du chocolate.  It was very fun and actually easy.  However it does take a number of hours.   We did “cheat”.   We made the dough. Kneaded it and then let it rise etc.     we then took some dough that was ready and rolled it out and made our treats.    We then went back and added the butter and did all of the “turns” to incorporate the butter and to make all the flaky layers. Here are some pictures from the class
