Eggless cinnamon sugar churros, a popular Spanish dessert recently landed in the Indian subcontinent and has been taking palates with a storm! So, I obviously tried out the recipe on my own.

I have tried to play with an authentic Mexican churros recipe and let me assure you that I have tried my best and I hope that this is the best recipe becomes your go-to once as fast as it became mine!

Ingredients

2 cups water
6 tbsp granulated white sugar
4 tbsp vegetable oil
a pinch of salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
Oil, for frying
1 cup castor sugar + 2 tbsp cinnamon powder
1 cup dark chocolate, finely chopped
¾ cup heavy cream

Method

For churros

* In a saucepan set over medium heat, combine water, granulated white sugar, vegetable oil, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and remove from heat.

* While the mixture is still hot, mix in the flour and mix well until the dough thickens. Put this thick mixture in a piping bag with a star tip attached.

* Heat the oil for deep-frying. Using a piping bag with a star tip, pipe the dough strips into the hot oil. Fry until dough strips become golden brown.

* Roll the churros in cinnamon sugar mixture.

For chocolate sauce

* To make the chocolate sauce, heat the cream and pour it over the finely chopped chocolate.

* Let the mixture for 5 minutes and then mix well until everything is well combined.
