This could count as a crossover with cutthroat kitchen or as my nemesis.

I made this recipe for the first time 4 years ago and it turned out pretty good. Last year I tried the croissants from Sally's baking addiction and was disappointed. They were less than half this size and not even close to honeycombed.

To be fair, these aren't honeycombed either. A lot of butter leaked out. I think I over proofed them. The cutthroat part comes in where I got my brother to help roll the dough and he did it so hard and fast, there were tears that also let butter out. Still taste great though, and looked impressive.
