Fresh Easy Homemade Churros

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CHURROS

• 1 c. water


• 6 tbsp. butter


• 2 tbsp. granulated sugar


• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract


• 1 c. all-purpose flour


• 1 tsp. kosher salt


• 2 large eggs


• Cinnamon sugar

FOR THE CHOCOLATE DIPPING SAUCE

• 3/4 c. dark chocolate chips


• 3/4 c. heavy cream


• 1 tsp. ground cinnamon


• 1/4 tsp. kosher salt

DIRECTIONS

1. Make churros: In a large saucepan over medium heat, add
   water, butter, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then add vanilla. Turn off heat and
   add flour and salt. Stir with a wooden spoon until thickened, 30 seconds. Let
   mixture cool for 10 minutes.


2. To cooled mixture, using a hand mixer, beat in eggs one at a
   time until combined. Transfer mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large open
   star tip.


3. In a large pot over medium heat, add enough oil to come
   halfway up the sides and heat to 375°. Holding the piping bag a few inches
   above the oil, carefully pipe churros into 6″ long ropes. Use kitchen scissors
   to cut off dough from piping bag.


4. Fry until golden, 4 to 5 minutes, turning as necessary. Fry
   3 to 4 churros at a time and let oil come back to 375° before each batch.
   Remove churros with a slotted spoon or tongs and immediately roll churros in
   cinnamon sugar, then place on a cooling rack.


5. Make chocolate dipping sauce: Place chocolate chips in a
   medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring heavy cream
   to a simmer. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and let sit 2 minutes. Add cinnamon
   and salt and whisk to combine.


6. Serve churros with chocolate dipping sauce.
