@@MrYuetoo Always instant dry yeast! I never use active dry yeast. It depends on your room temperature, check out my croissant guide to learn how to calculate milk temperature!
I just pulled mine from the oven and they turned absolutely amazing! Thank you so much Benny! All the tips helped SO much! Can’t wait for more recipes!
@@Bennysbaked Sir, is it possible to add gelatine to your whipped ganache to give it a little more body? If so, how much gelatine powder or leaves should I use? Thanks...
Those are lovely layers! I used to do something similar at work with cruffin. You should definitely try them on muffin pan too. They will look heavenly
This video is what i was looking for..💕Thanks for the recipe! Btw i wanna ask u something..[ 6:34 ] Is it cold water that you sprinkle on the dough? [ 6:30 ] And what is the purpose of using brush on the dough?
wooow, when I discovered your channel you had about 500 subs and now you reached over 5000! congratulations!!! :) the recipe seems amazing, can't wait to give it a go
Thanks for your reply, Benny. I proofed and baked the offcuts and Oh My, even these scraps had beautiful crisp delicious layers. This is an awesome recipe and I’ll put this in my binder of keepers. Thank you again.
Omg I will definitely make them! Thanks for this recipe, it’s like you are reading my mind. I really wanted to make this choco croissants very soon and now you posted it
I love them too. I wish I could have one. BTW, question if I am allowed: making croissants, while proofing, I can see layer separation but sometimes they don't even double in size. Do you know where the problem could be? Sometimes I store the dough in the freezer. Can be the problem? Or maybe something else? Thanks for this video.
i finally made them! my dough probably didn't had enough strenght, cause they didn't quite keep the height they achieved while proofing. they kinda deflated a little bit that said, the taste is amazing. i probably never tasted anything that had such an intense infused taste of chocolate, so good! i'll try again using a different flour. i used a 11% flour (type 1 is the commercial name) but i should have probably gone for the 12% type (manitoba) ... i'm not sure though
Hi Benny, thank you for sharing your recipe. Can you please tell me the difference between heavy cream and cold cream? What's the brand of cold cream that you used in the video? Thanks 😊
Lovely airration in your final product.Bravo!! Only one question... can the cocoa powder be doubled and if so does anything else need increasing to get still great end result??
I wouldn't add any more cocoa powder! This recipe already has lots of it, any more will affect proofing. All I did to achieve the result In the video is good fermentation! Nothing more😀
you have a holy hand keep on i cant remember actually how many time i made croissant but every time no crumbs appear although i give more time fermentation after shaping ofcoure why 🙄in both 🧈 82 and the regular sheets , flour 10%or 12 protein both of them the same i mean from out 🥐 look very nice but when you cut them somelayers inside not baked still dough 🙁 is it the oven
Just a question...Why the butter always comes out when I'm rolling out the dough? I check the temperature everytime, I do all the steps correctly, why it happens? Thank you
@@CNNJNO Ok so it sounds like the butter is too cold, This dough is quite soft, and if the butter is too hard and break during the lamination process, it can tear through the dough! So always make sure that your butter is soft enough before you start doing the folds!
I discovered your channel today and I'm in love with your recipes!! I'd love to try baking them! Too sad where I live is waaay too hot, and my fridge is not big enough for me to make them inside it😂😂 Anyway, beautiful work, really, and thanks for sharing!
Hi Eulália. I have same problem making croissants in tropical temperatures here in Borneo. So I make my croissants in an air-conditioned room. I even have to use an air conned room for proofing, otherwise the butter would melt. Benny's classic croissant recipe is the best I've tried, out of at least 10 different recipes. Not yet tried this triple chocolate version. So if you have an air-conditioned room, don't give up; they are worth it!
Everyone dreams of cars and houses and one of my dreams is to wake up to someone making fresh homemade authentic croissant like yours for breakfast lunch and dinner. Watched the video twice now 😅
Hi! Thank you for sharing this great recipe 😍 But I have a stupid question that the "Cold cream" in chocolate ganache ingredient is what kind of cream you use? Is that the whipping cream or just cream which is cold 😅 Thank you
maan you are a beast, those layers look SIIICKKK, this is exactly what i'm striving to accomplish! If i can ask how long and how many tries did it took you to perfect your croissants? I just began my croissant journey and i'm eating my 3rd croissant i've made in my life while im writing this. I've tried these past 2 times making dominique ansel's recipe for a croissant but slightly modified (instead of sourdough starter and instant yeast i'm using fresh yeast) He uses different folding method and i wanna try yours cuz so far the croissants layers didn't seperate properely, also for some reason when i follow the cooking time (190C/15 mins) it's not cooked to golden. I've tried making one tray for 20 minutes but it still wasnt enough and i'm worried if I go over they will get dry. Idk what im doing wrong, probably the folding... So next time i'll be making them i'll try your recipe and will let you know how it turned out.
Hi Benny ! You are amazing 💞💞the way you explain .Thank for you guidance .Can you please guide me about the room temperature we should maintain while making corissant nd Pain au Chocolat so that the laminate get perfect.Thanking you for your kind consideration.God bless you 🥰🙏 Regard
@@Bennysbaked ok thank you so much 🙏 Can you please let me know the temperature of butter before laminating nd the dough becoz i make mistakes nd my butter mixes up in the dough
I proof my croissants in a plastic container. I put warm water inside for humidity and proof for 2-2:30 hours. They become wobbly, but from the sides they split apart, where they are rolled from. The gluten is well developed. Shall I proof them without the warm water?
@@Bennysbaked I’m using T55 and 82% butter fat. I spray the box inside with water which seems to be doing better with the proofing. When I put the warm water then it splits. I don’t understand why.
@@Bennysbaked I’m baking in India. So our temperature is high as it is. But spraying water after an hours interval is working well with the rise. But only it doesn’t double as much as yours in 3 hours and the layers don’t really split during the final proof.
hi, I scrupulously followed all the steps but I must have done something wrong because my pan au chocolat didn't stay so light and empty inside, but much heavier and more compact. where could i have gone wrong? Before cutting them, their appearance was very promising and they didn't lose a drop of butter during cooking. What did I do wrong in your opinion?
Do you always use conventional setting for croissant or Pain au chocolat? When you bake more than one pan, do you rotate the pans halfway through ( top and bottom)?
Thank you for your support :) I work full time, and I use my days off to make these videos... But I'll try my best to bring out as many recipe tutorials as I can!😁

Hello, do you use instant yeast or active dry yeast? Also, what temperature should the milk be?

Have you done this without adding cocoa to the butter? I'm curious how different they'd be.
Yes, just not as chocolaty.

Hi, if I don't want to make cocoa butter how can I just omit the cocoa, and use 250g of butter right?
Yes :)
Great video! How would you substitute the whipped dark chocolate ganache recipe to make white chocolate whipped ganache?
Try
325g cream
2ea Vanilla beans
25g glucose
4g gelatin sheet
235g white choco
490g cold cream
That sounds amazing!

Hi Chef..amazing result! Can I substitute honey with maple syrup?
They don't function quite the same, honey is good for the yeast, maple syrup will contribute softness and sugar which we don't need in this recipe.
