HAM AND CHEESE CROISSANTS

Steps:

• Arrange racks in the upper third and lower thirds of the oven. Bring a skillet of water to a simmer over medium-high heat. Transfer the skillet to the floor of the oven and close the door. (The steam released inside the oven will create an ideal proofing environment for the pastries.) Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• Let the dough sit for 5 minutes at room temperature. Unwrap (save the plastic wrap for proofing) and place on a very lightly floured surface. If the dough has shrunk during chilling, roll it out again to a slab that's 16 inches long and 15 inches wide. Dust off any excess flour.
• Use a wheel cutter to trim 1/2 inch of dough from all four sides, straightening and squaring them off, creating a slab that's 15 inches long by 14 inches wide. Using a ruler, cut the slab lengthwise into 5 equal strips each measuring 3 inches wide. Cut each strip in half crosswise, creating 10 rectangles.
• Working with one rectangle of dough at a time, cover one half with a slice of ham, folding it as needed to leave a 1/2-inch border along the short side. Then, top with 1/2 ounce (2 tablespoons) of the cheese. Roll the dough into a snug spiral, starting at the end with the ham and cheese, then transfer the spiral to one of the prepared baking sheets, resting it on the seam. Repeat with the remaining dough, ham and cheese, dividing between the sheets and spacing evenly. Very loosely cover with plastic wrap so the pastries have some room to expand.
• Open the oven and stick your hand inside: It should be humid but not hot, as the water in the skillet will have cooled. You want the pastries to proof at 70 to 75 degrees (any hotter and the butter will melt, leading to a denser pastry). Gently place the baking sheets inside the oven on the two racks and let the pastries proof until they're doubled in size, extremely puffy and jiggle delicately on the baking sheet, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• When the pastries are proofed, remove the baking sheets from the oven and carefully uncover them. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for 20 minutes while you heat the oven. Remove the skillet from the oven and heat to 375 degrees.
• In a small bowl, stir the yolks and heavy cream until streak-free. Remove the baking sheets from the refrigerator and use a pastry brush to gently brush the surfaces of each pastry with the yolk mixture. Transfer the sheets to the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Rotate the baking sheets and switch racks and continue to bake until the pastries are deeply browned, another 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets.

CROISSANT ICE CREAM CONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Position an oven rack in the bottom of the oven. Turn a 12-cup muffin tin upside down. Wrap the long side of each piece of foil around the bottom rim of one upside-down muffin cup and shape into a 6-inch tall cone to use as a mold. Repeat on alternating cups to make 6 molds; lightly spray foil cones and muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Unroll crescent dough sheets on a lightly floured surface and gently press perforations together to form two 13x8-inch rectangles. Cut each rectangle into six 1 1/4x13-inch strips. Working with one foil cone at a time, wrap 2 dough strips up and around foil cone, beginning at and base, and slightly overlapping. Pinching to seal the second dough strip to the first, and pinching seams and tip to seal. Repeat with remaining dough strips and foil cones. Brush cones with beaten egg white.
• Bake in the preheated oven on the bottom rack until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Carefully remove from oven, remove cones (with foil still attached) from muffin tin, and place cones upside-down on a wire rack. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• Brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with topping of choice, if desired. Let cool completely on wire rack, about 15 minutes. Remove foil from ice cream cones by pinching foil together, gently twisting and pulling. Fill as desired.

GLAZED CHEESE CROISSANTS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine butter, cottage cheese, flour, and salt. Shape into a disk, and wrap in plastic; refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a well-floured surface, roll dough out to a 14-inch circle. Cut circle evenly into 8 triangles. Roll each triangle up, from wide end to tip, turning ends of roll in to form a crescent shape. Place croissants 3 inches apart on a rimmed baking sheet (to catch any drips); bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to wire rack. Cool 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make Sugar Glaze: In a glass measuring cup, add 2 teaspoons milk by 1/2 teaspoonfuls to 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, stirring until glaze is of a drizzling consistency. It should be thin enough to pour while still thick enough to coat croissants. Drizzle over croissants. Serve warm, or let cool to room temperature. Store at room temperature in an airtight container, up to 2 days.
