The cronut - a croissant, donut hybrid - is fast gaining popularity across the country.  Don't worry about spending hours in line in the hope of buying one from chef and inventor Dominique Ansel, or negotiating for them on the black market.  If you have a large amount of free time and an adventurous spirit, try out Ansel's original recipe; it requires three days.  For the rest of us, these easy-to-make cronut recipes will have you have putting your own rings of delicious, flaky, pastry together in no time!


Please note that cronuts must be fried to achieve the desired texture.  As always, please exercise care when dealing with hot oil.  A candy thermometer is a helpful tool to help keep the oil at the perfect frying temperature.
