Ingredients

• For the Churros:
• – 240ml (1 cup) water
• – 60g (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
• – 15g (1 tbsp) granulated sugar
• – 1g (1/4 tsp) salt
• – 120g (1 cup) all-purpose flour
• – 2 large eggs
• – 500ml (2 cups) vegetable oil for frying
• For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
• – 100g (1/2 cup) granulated sugar
• – 10g (1 tbsp) ground cinnamon
• For the Chocolate Sauce:
• – 120ml (1/2 cup) heavy cream
• – 150g (5.3 oz) dark chocolate, chopped
• – 5ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar

In a shallow dish, mix the granulated sugar with the ground cinnamon until fully combined. Set aside.

Prepare the Churros Dough

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring this mixture to a gentle boil. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the flour with a wooden spoon until it forms a ball.

Let the dough cool for 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Fry the Churros

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot to 180°C (350°F). Using a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle, pipe 10-15cm (4-6 inch) lengths of dough into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to remove the churros from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Roll each churro in the cinnamon sugar mixture while still warm, ensuring an even coating.

Prepare the Chocolate Sauce

In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it simmers. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped dark chocolate and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth and silky.

Serve the Churros

Arrange the churros on a serving platter alongside the warm chocolate sauce for dipping. Enjoy them fresh for the ultimate experience.
