Eggless Churros with Chocolate Sauce .

When ever i go to the mall near by house , i buy these warm sugar and cinnamon coated Churros  w/ Chocolate Sauce. They are made fresh every time .The shop that sell Churros is always crowded . The whole area smell so good with the flavor of cinnamon and I love the free sample they give .

This was the first time i had made Churros at home .It was really fun making it .  Anything homemade is always fresh and tasty than the store bought . When friends are over to your place , Kids parties , Movie nights this can be a great snack / sweet .

I should definitely thank +Preeti Garg from Simly Tadka for suggesting Churros for this months Challenge on Sweet Fantasy Club.

Ingredients :

For Churros :

All Purpose Flour - 1/2 Cup

Olive oil - 1 TBLS

Water - 1/2 Cup

Salt - A Pinch 

Oil - To fry 

Sugar -  1 TSP + to sprinkle

Cinnamon - to sprinkle  ( Optional , i didn't use them )

For Chocolate Sauce :

Good Quality Chocolate Chips - 1/2 Cup

Cream - 1/3 Cup

Instructions:

To make Churros:

• In a saucepan , over a medium heat , combine water , flour , sugar , salt and  vegetable oil .
• Bring the mixture to boil , Using a wooden spoon keep stirring to make sure there is no lumps forming . Remove from heat .
• Keep stirring til it forms a ball. ( Like we do for eclairs )
• Put the dough in a piping bag with a star tip .
• Mean while heat the oil  .
• Mix sugar and cinnamon in a zip lock bag  and keep aside.
• When the oil is nice and hot , pipe the dough for about 3 to 4 inches long . 
• Using a scissor , Cut the piped dough to release to the hot oil .
• Fry the Churros till they turn golden brown.  Rotate the churros to make sure they are fried evenly .
• Transfer the churros into paper towels , Drain the excess oil from it .
• When they are warm , add them into the ziplock bag and give it a quick shake .
• Put it in a air tight box for later use.

To make the Chocolate Sauce:

• Boil the heavy cream in a saucepan . Pour it over the chocolate . Allow it to sit for couple of minutes and stir it till the chocolate melts .

Notes:

• If you feel the dough is too tight for piping add a little water ( probably a teaspoon ) and loosen the dough .( That is what i did ).
• Do not add too much of water to loosen out the dough because if the dough is too watery Churros will be really oily .
•  Make sure the dough is cooled down before putting it in the piping bag .
• I used milk chocolate for the chocolate sauce . You can use any chocolate of your choice.

When i was making them i reserved few churros without adding sugar . I sprinkled some salt , pepper and paprika . Oh yum that was great too . Try the spicy version too .
