Croissants are crescent-shaped leavened pastries, typical of the Italian breakfast. Their origin is uncertain, but it is thought that they come from France. They are soft, fragrant, and freshly baked they are irresistible. Ideal to enjoy with a cup of coffee or cappuccino.

Measure the ingredients and bring them to room temperature; sift the flour into a large bowl;

Crumble the yeast into the lukewarm milk; add a little flour to make the dough thicker;
Sprinkle the mixture with a pinch of sugar; cover it with a cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes;
Mix the remaining sugar and salt into the flour: make a well in the center;
Break the eggs into the well; cut 50 g of butter into flakes and scatter them over the flour;
