I started your recipe 2 days ago and baked today. It was easy to follow and make. I wanted to leave the dough longer in the fridge and folded it about 8 times. The result was delicious, flakey and golden pastry. Thank you

I made croissants yesterday using this recipe ( link of the recipe is in the description box). I was able to make the dough and was chilling it when i read all the negative comments here. I was in doubt if my croissant would turn out like the one in this video. At the end of the day, i could say i was able to pull it off. I even some choco croissants and my kids loved it! I had the flaky outer layer but the inner part was not so "airy" but it tasted great. I also wasnt able to get that nice honeycombed effect. But over all, this recipe isnt that bad.
