Description
Delicious churros filled with a cheesecake-cookie dough mixture, rolled in cinnamon sugar, and drizzled with chocolate sauce for a decadent treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup edible cookie dough
- Oil for frying
- Cinnamon sugar (for coating)
- Chocolate sauce (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot to 375°F (190°C).
- In a saucepan, bring water, butter, sugar, and salt to a boil.
- Add the flour and stir constantly until a dough forms and pulls away from the sides.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 4-inch strips directly into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Drain churros on paper towels.
- In a bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in the edible cookie dough.
- Fill another piping bag with the cheesecake-cookie dough mixture and pipe into the center of each churro.
- Roll filled churros in cinnamon sugar.
- Drizzle with chocolate sauce before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature (375°F/190°C) for perfect frying.
- Do not overfill the churros with the cheesecake mixture to avoid them breaking.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
