Spanish Churros with Chocolate Dip

These crispy Spanish churros are the perfect treat to enjoy with a rich and creamy chocolate dip.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
Remove from heat and add all-purpose flour. Stir until the mixture forms a ball.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Pipe the dough into long strips directly into the hot oil, using scissors to cut the dough.
Fry the churros until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until hot but not boiling.
Place the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl and pour the hot cream over it. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and creamy.
Serve the churros warm with the chocolate dip on the side.
Enjoy!
