Happy Valentine's Day! Do you have any special plans for the day? We're keeping things low-key by staying in. But, I still wanted to do something special, so I made chocolate and almond croissants for breakfast.
Now before you ask, "How did you find time to make croissants for breakfast?" My secret is... Trader Joe's. That store is the best because it offers delicious, wholesome, and gourmet food for reasonable prices. I've known about the chocolate croissants (in the frozen section) for a while now, and recently discovered the almond version. They are a cinch to make (just leave them to proof on a baking sheet overnight)*. Besides, any baked good that is ready to eat in under 20 minutes is always a winner in my book.
*Tip: Just before baking, brush the croissants with egg wash (1 beaten egg and a splash of water) to make them glistening and golden brown. You don't have to use all of it, just lightly coat the surface of each croissant.
Enjoy!
