Lisa's Culinary Atrocities

Williams Sonoma has some pretty spectacular frozen croissants, so when I discovered that the same Master Pastry Chef, Jean-Yves Charon, Founder of Galaxy Desserts in Richmond, CA, also makes Trader Joe’s mini croissants, I was more than thrilled!  Pay $39.95/24 or $3.75/8 for the SAME THING?

Being the waffle-loving person that I am, I also had to try to waffle a few.  After letting the dough proof overnight I gently unrolled a couple of the adorable croissants and added blueberries, then let sit for another hour or so to further proof.

I set them in the waffle iron for about 3-4 minutes and they came out perfectly steamy, flaky, buttery and abso-friggin-lutely delicious.

I also tried one without the blueberries inside:

And lastly, in the oven:

I cannot recommend these enough.  They are the perfect size, decadent, inexpensive, incredibly tasty, and easy easy easy.

Corn Dog Muffinettes

Oh yes I did!  I put some of those damned little hotdogs inside a teeny little cornbread muffin and now they’re in your FACE!

I definitely want to try this idea with other things, such as soyrizo or a reallly good italian cured meat, or a veggie dog if I can find one that tastes good.

Great with a dollop of mustard—it makes them stick out their tongue. How rude.

Very rude muffin
