## Instructions

1. In a bowl, add ¾ cup of warm water, ¾ cup of warm milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of dry yeast and 1 whole egg.
2. Mix everything well to activate the yeast.
3. Add about 5⅓ cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.

12. Make cuts in a triangular shape.
13. Roll up each triangle carefully.
14. Brush each croissant with egg yolk to give them a golden shine and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
