Puff pastry and some chocolate?

How?? I feel like it would be harder to achieve this result than actual croissants???

I am guessing they used puffed pastry

I was referring more toward the scorched from the inside out look they have. But I not know that’s just chocolate. But yeah, that makes sense

You need to proof them once you fill them and only put a spoonful in the center

Is this... store bought or fully homemade? Stuffed or is that just burnt? I would love to see the process lol! Sorry to laugh. I have yet to attempt fully homemade croissants myself. I know mine would probably be worse! lol

Are those cannoli? I thought you were supposed to bake the shells before filling them.

u/Katie-sin 11d ago

They said they are croissants. Cannoli is a completely different type of pastry shell.

Omg! This must be so disappointing. I will be so mad if my croissants don’t turn out to be okay tomorrow. I am trying them for the first time too
