Repeat until you have created at least 5 layers in the dough and a maximum of 10.

Step 6

Cover in cling film and refridgerate until required, then roll out to the required size and shape from there.

If you desire refridgerate at 5 layers before continuing to ensure butter remains intact and not combined with the mixture
