For the dipping sauce a 5, and for the Churos a 4. I had only wished that I added some cinnamon to them, but all together we enjoyed these as a nice dessert last weekend . Made for Recipe Swap..

This was my first time making churros. The dough is very easy and relatively quick to prepare, and the chocolate sauce is absolutely to-die-for. I wasn't fond of the churros alone, but they tasted better with the chocolate dipping sauce. DD enjoyed the sauce the most! Unfortunately, I am suffering from 2rd degree burn splatters to my right hand & arm from the hot oil. I never deep-fat fry and don't have much experience working with hot oil. I turned the burner to high heat but when I added the churros, one unfortunately exploded in my face as I was removing it from the hot oil. Thankfully, I was able to shield my face, but my hand/arm took the brunt of the damage. Ouch! Even so, I went on. I lowered the heat to medium and was able to finish cooking the remainder just fine. I would suggest placing a note in your recipe for future less-oil-savy cooks like myself, which indicates the proper oil temperature. Nevertheless, it was fun to step "outside the box" and make something different. I will definitely be using the left-over chocolate sauce for ice-cream sundaes this week and will keep it on file for later. Yum! Thanks for sharing this recipe! (Made for AUS/NZ Recipe Swap #40)

These were gone so fast!!! I can imagine adding cinnamon to them,that must be the Mexican version.DD was so funny explaining to my mom on the phone that we were making churros.She was on the floor laughing that she couldn't understand her.Finally she came over to try them herself. So,I quickly whipped up another batch.Good thing there was enough dipping sauce leftover.Thanks for sharing!

These are super yummy and very authentic, too! They taste pretty much exactly like the churros I had when living in AndalucÃa last year. Mmmm, the rich chocolate sauce is a must! :)
I thought these would be quite difficult to make, but the dough came together quite quickly and easily and even the frying was alright. I have to work on getting the oil to the right temperature, but all in all I was pleased.
My only problem was that I had way too much dipping sauce left and now have to search for a way to use that up...
THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this lovely recipe with us, LIG! Now I can have a part of spain right in my kitchen. :)
