Almond croissants

I decided that I wanted a challenge! I haven't experimented much with pastry so I thought I would start with croissants. This recipe was from Nigella Lawson's How to be a Domestic Goddess book. Croissant's take at least two day's to make though I liked that fact I could make a big batch and freeze half of it. I made six, and took them to work for breakfast. They were all gone by the end off the day, though in my profession that doesn't mean that they were tasty just that there was food around. They were nice but didn't taste as croissanty as I was hoping for and they wern't very flaky!.
