-They are just as hard to make as everyone always told me. Not necessarily so hard that I couldn't do it (which I always thought was the case) but so hard that it takes FOREVER and makes a big mess.
-They have just as much butter as you hoped they didn't. That's what makes them so messy to make. You don't actually mix butter into the dough, but deal with a layer of butter on it's own. Butter is messy.
-The anticipation of tasting them is enough to keep Chase busy for exactly 32 minutes. He would stand in front of the oven saying "ummy, ummy, mmmmm..." and then run to his high chair and motion for me to put him in. When I would explain that they needed to cook more, he would go back to the oven and repeat" ummy, ummy, mmmmm..."
They cost a fraction of the cost as they sell them for at the store and taste 15 times better.
Edit: This is the recipe I used Croissant rolls. Their picture doesn't really look good... I don't know why theirs turned out so weird looking, but I'm glad it didn't stop me from making them. Also- I didn't notice that the recipe makes 20-30 rolls. Good thing I burned half of them so I only have a dozen instead of two.

Umm, I want some! And I would like the recipe to try them!! They look delicious, at least they turned out after all that work!!
They look wonderful... you can never have too much butter if you ask me. Butter is what makes things so delicious.
After all that work you BURNED half of them? Now that is sad. They look pretty professional to me.
Way to go Kimbrey!! They look really good to me. I might have to try out the recipe....if I have enough time and patience as you say it requires!! ;D
