Ingredients
Churros
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Light Brown Sugar
- 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 Egg
- 2-3 cups Canola Oil for frying
Cinnamon Sugar
- 1/4 cup Granulated White Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
Chocolate Sauce
- 150 grams Dark Chocolate melted
- 150 Whipping Cream
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt; bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Once it starts boiling, remove the pan from the heat, and stir in flour until well combined.
- Add the eggs gradually, beating continuously until everything is incorporated. The dough must be fairly thick, smooth and pliable.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before handling.
- Meanwhile, start filling your deep fryer, or frying pan with a thick bottom with oil, about 3-4 inches deep. Preheat oil to 160° C (C (375° F), or until it is sizzling.
- Prepare a baking tray and put parchment paper.
- Dust the parchment paper with a little flour to prevent churros dough from sticking.
- Fill the pastry bag fitted with a star-strip (I used 1M by Wilton). Start piping about 3-inch long churro on top of parchment paper, and cut using a kitchen scissor.
- Dip your fingers in the flour, and carefully pick up each churro and place 3-4 churros into the heated oil. Cook them for about 3-4 minutes or until the dough is golden brown.
- Using a slotted spoon or tongs, carefully turn the churros once about midway through to cook them evenly.
- Transfer the churros onto a paper-towelled plate to remove excess oil.
- Combine cinnamon and sugar onto a big plate, then roll the churros into the mixture while warm.
Chocolate Sauce
- Place the chopped chocolate in a medium bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat. Simmer for five minutes.
- Pour the heavy cream over chocolate.
- Stir slowly until the chocolate has melted, becomes smooth and well combined.
Notes
- This recipe will give you 3 dozens of a 3-inch churro.
- If you want your churros to have softer texture inside, using the same recipe, try adding 1/4 cup of whole milk when boiling the water, butter, sugar, and salt.
- The dough can be prepared ahead of time and kept refrigerated. Just take them out and fry them right before serving time.
- For safety purposes, I did not pipe out these churros from the piping bag straight into the hot oil to prevent accidents such as dropping the piping bag or the piping bag tearing.
- Be creative and try different sweet sauces like caramel, creme Anglaise or any type of dessert sauce.
