Basic croissant
500g flour (11.5%)
55g Brown sugar + 10g Salt
10g Milk powder
260g Milk + 20g Fresh yeast (10-12g instant dry)
50g Soft butter
250g Good quality unsalted butter (82%) for lamination
(I used Lurpak unsalted butter)

If your dough appears to be too dry, try 130g water+130g milk instead of 260g milk.

Note that you may need to increase or decrease hydration to suit the flour you are using.
And yes, you can half this recipe to make a small batch!
