Directions

  1. Let’s start by making the churros: Begin in a large saucepan over medium heat — Add water, butter, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then add vanilla.
  2. Turn off the heat and add flour and salt. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until it thickens (about 30 seconds). And then let the mixture cool for 10 minutes.
  3. Once mixture is cooled, use a hand mixer to beat in eggs one at a time until combined. Transfer mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip.
  4. Next, in a large pot over medium heat, add enough oil so it comes 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. Be sure to use kitchen scissors to cut off dough from piping bag.
  5. Fry the dough until golden brown (about 4 to 5 minutes) turning as necessary. You can fry 3 to 4 churros at a time and let oil come back to 375° before each batch. Remove the churros with a slotted spoon or tongs and immediately roll churros in cinnamon sugar, then place on a cooling rack.
  6. To make the 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.
  7. Serve churros with chocolate dipping sauce.
