A Brownie Baked inside a DanishInstagram member @lowereeeatsside, a foodie who is exploring the cuisine of the Lower East Side of New York City, discovered this marvel at the bakery Petit Chou. Although “chou” is the French word for “cabbage”, this name is a reference to choux pastry dough, which is an airy dough suitable for cream puffs and eclairs.This novel snack is a brownie baked (presumably for the second time) within a puffy danish. It’s not on the bakery’s menu, so it’s likely to be a temporary, special item. I’d better go get one while it’s still available.-via First We Feast#brownie #croissant #danish
 
An Eerie Croissant Appropriate for HalloweenHow did redditor /u/input36 achieve this amazing coloration?Bakers, both professional and amateur, offer their guesses. The green is obvious food dye in the dough. But how did s/he achieve the black color? Perhaps by using butter dyed black or a blackened egg wash. Alternatively, it could be powdered activated charcoal or painted chocolate./u/input36 eventually answers: laminating the dough. Laminating, in this sense, means carefully folding butter into dough so that the dough has alternating layers of butter and flour. /u/input36 then made sure that the final layer was butter, which s/he then colored black.Be sure to check out /u/input36’s profile for images of similarly amazing croissants.#croissant #baking
