Cooking time: 20-25 minutes
Serves: 4-5 people
Ingredients:
- Cinnamon Sugar
- Caster Sugar
- 1/4 Cup Cinnamon Powder
Churros
- 1 Cup Water
- 30 grms Butter
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- 1/2 Tsp Vanilla essence
- 1 Cup All purpose Flour
CHOCOLATE SPREAD
Method:
- Add the caster sugar and cinnamon powder in a flat bowl. Mix them using a fork to make the cinnamon sugar.
- Before making the dough for the churros you have to keep a few set-ups ready.
- You will need to ready the piping bag & star nozzle setup ready, take 2 large piping bags & insert one in the other, then insert the star nozzle & cut an end so that the nozzle pops out.
- Use a large tall glass. Insert the piping bag into it. Open the piping bag and fold it over the rim of the glass.
- In a small stock pot, add water, butter, sugar, and vanilla essence. Stir well. Turn the flame to high.
- Once the butter melts and the water comes to a boil, switch off the flame. Add the refined flour and stir well using a spatula. Form a dough.
- Let the dough rest for 1-2 minutes or until it gets warm to touch. Then transfer the dough into the piping bag. Push the dough down, and seal the open end of the piping bag by twisting it.
- Pipe 4-5 inches of churros onto the tray & cut the ends using a knife.
- Fry the churros in moderately hot oil over a medium flame until they become crisp and golden brown. Transfer them onto a sieve so that all the excess oil drips off. Let them rest for 1-2 minutes. Then, coat them in the cinnamon sugar.
- You can optionally fill the churros by making a small cavity using a straw & then piping it with some chocolate spread of cream cheese.
- Your delicious churros are ready, serve them warm along with some whipped cream & chocolate spread of your choice.
