How to Make Mini Croissants With Frosting
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 4 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal balls. Wrap each ball tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into a 10-inch circle. Cut each circle into 8 equal wedges.
- Starting at the wide end, tightly roll each wedge up into a croissant shape.
- Place the croissants onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 350°F (175°C), or until golden brown.
- **For the Frosting:** In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Once the croissants have slightly cooled, spread the frosting generously over the warm mini croissants.
- Enjoy your delightful homemade mini croissants!
