In another bowl, cut cool butter into remaining 3 c. of flour, till pcs are the size of dry beans. Add in yeast mix. Blend just till flour is moistened, turn out onto lightly floured surface. Knead about 30 seconds to release air bubbles. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into a 16 round, cut each into triangles. Roll triangles loosely from longest side to point. Gentle bend into crescents and place on ungreased baking sheet point down. Cover with plastic wrap or possibly damp tea towel. Let rise in hot place about 45 min or possibly till doubled in bulk.
