Churros con chocolate



Churros con chocolate is a traditional Spanish dessert developed by Spanish shepherds many centuries ago. It is also popular in Latin America and France.

Churros are long/spiraled Spanish doughnuts that are deep fried and dipped in hot chocolate sauce or cafĂ© con leche (Spanish for coffee with milk). They are usually eaten for breakfast or served as a snack.

The chocolate sauce is very succulent and has a consistency somewhere between hot chocolate and chocolate pudding. You can alter the quantity of cornflour added according to how thick you want your sauce to be. The churros are very light and crispy on the outside but so tender on the inside! So you can see how the two elements of this dessert perfectly complement each other.
