the almond croissant

How can one describe the almond croissant…it simply is to me a piece of heaven! Take a beautiful buttery plain croissant, slice it open, and fill it with almond pastry cream. Spread some of the almond cream on top, sprinkle more toasted almonds and pop it back into the oven. The cream will melt and infuse into the layers of the croissant. Top with a little icing sugar.

We just made a couple today, there are only two left and I just can’t get them out of my head, part of me wishing no one would come to get them so that I’ll have an excuse to have them just before bedtime this evening!
