INGREDIENTS FOR YIELDS

For the Churros: 

  • 1 cup (240ml) water
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 stick butter (110g)
  • 2 tbsp sugar + 1/4 cup for coating

Chocolate sauce:

DIRECTIONS

1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, 2 tablespoons sugar, salt and butter. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Stir in flour until mixture forms a ball, about 1 minute. Allow to cool slightly. 

2. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until incorporated after each addition; spoon mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large open-star tip.

3. Heat oil for frying in a Dutch-oven or deep skillet to 356F (180C). Pipe strips of dough into hot oil using a pastry bag. Fry until golden; drain on paper towels.

4. Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon. Roll the churros in the mixture.

5. Chocolate sauce: heat heavy cream. Pour the cream over the chocolate. Let sit 1 minute. Stir well until smooth.

    Air fryer is the best option for reheating.
