Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 4 oz dark chocolate (chopped)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high until it shimmers, about 2 minutes. A flick of water should sizzle immediately.

  2. 2

    Stir flour and water together in a small bowl until a thick batter forms. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.

  3. 3

    Pipe 6-inch churro strips directly into hot oil. Fry 2-3 at a time without crowding; they should sizzle and turn golden, about 90 seconds per side.

  4. 4

    Flip churros gently with tongs and fry the second side until deep golden, another 90 seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.

  5. 5

    Mix cinnamon and sugar on a shallow plate. Roll warm churros in the mixture until fully coated. Repeat until all churro dough is fried.

  6. 6

    Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Pour into a serving bowl and serve alongside warm churros.

Tools you’ll need

  • deep skillet or 3-quart pot
  • instant-read thermometer (optional but helpful)
  • piping bag with large star tip
  • tongs
  • paper towels
  • shallow plate
  • microwave-safe bowl
