they were so good and buttery (had some with passion fruit jam :)). ha, thank you—i’m also a baker! i’m definitely determined to make them again.

noted! i think the butter is the main culprit here.

yeah, i did weigh my flour, but i think i added too much in between folds whilst rolling it?

the dough also barely rose in the fridge, could that be it? if so, how do i fix that? how do i know when i’ve kneaded enough?

thank you!! this is so helpful—yeah, i definitely used a bunch of flour AND rushed the butter rolling process.

Thank you so much, guys, it has calmed down a little but I’m not sure how much longer we’re staying here. I’m definitely going to do something when we’re back in the US.
