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 bowl, mix flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Gradually add cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead for about 10 minutes until smooth, then rest for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle and place the cold butter in the center. Fold the dough over the butter to seal it inside. Roll and fold three times, chilling between each fold.
- Roll out the laminated dough into another rectangle and cut into triangles. Place a piece of chocolate at the base and roll towards the tip.
- Allow croissants to proof for about 1 hour until doubled in size. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Brush with egg wash and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
