We intrigued by the name and decided to order one, even though we really had no idea what it was, except it smelled absolutely amazing!<\/p>\n<p>What came out was a deep fried croissant covered in cinnamon and sugar. It was so amazingly delicious my daughter and I quickly ate it before we met up with the rest of the family so we didn&#8217;t have to share.<\/p>\n<p>Seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Two adults shoving deep fried croissant in their mouth as they walked through the World Showcase to avoid having to share.<\/p>\n<p>It was just that good.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, it&#8217;s been on my list of thing I want to try to make at home. I felt the family needed a chance to taste these delicious treats and I didn&#8217;t want to be greedy. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>We usually do something to celebrate the last day of summer (before we start school) so I thought the best way to tell my kids summer was officially over was with plate of delicious, melt in your mouth cronuts.<\/p>\n<p>It worked. They were so happy, they didn&#8217;t even care that their days of sleeping until 10:30 and staying up way too late were coming to an end. They were eating cronuts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/files\/2014\/08\/Easy-Recipe-for-Homemade-Cronuts.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25727\" src=\"\/\/thehappyhousewife.com\/cooking\/files\/2014\/08\/Easy-Recipe-for-Homemade-Cronuts-651x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Easy Recipe for Homemade Cronuts | The Happy Housewife\" width=\"500\" height=\"786\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the really cool part.
