💡 3 Tips for Perfect Croissants:

1️⃣ Warm them up slightly before assembling—this makes slicing easier and prevents breakage.

2️⃣ Use Gruyère cheese for a rich, nutty flavor that pairs beautifully with ham.

3️⃣ For extra crispiness, place the croissants under the broiler for 1 minute after baking.
