Buttery Laminated French Croissants

Crisp, shattering layers give way to a honeycombed, buttery interior in these patiently laminated croissants. Three letter folds build dozens of paper-thin sheets of dough and butter that puff dramatically in the oven. It is a weekend project, but the burnished, flaky results are worth every chilled minute.
