Spanish Churros with Cinnamon Sugar and Chocolate Dipping Sauce

Ingredients:

• 1 cup water
• 1 cup and 2 tbsp of all purpose flour
• 2 tbsp preferred sweetener
• 1-2 tbsp oil or butter
• a pinch of salt
• oil for frying

Directions:

In a sauce pan, boil the water. Add salt, oil/butter, and your preferred sweetener. Remove from the heat, then add the flour, mix until smooth. Put the dough in a piping bag with a star tip. Heat the oil on medium-high, fry the dough until golden brown.

Serve with:

• Cinnamon sugar (I used molasses instead of sugar) or,
• Chocolate sauce (melt 200 gr good quality dark chocolate in a double boiler along with 1/4 cup preferred sweetener, and 1/4 cup milk or water)

Some people like to put egg into the dough but I don't, it was lovely enough to enjoy as afternoon snack. It was nice and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Make sure the oil is hot enough when frying.
