How to make the churros

Step 1 To begin making the churros, we will first make the churro dough. Combine the butter, sugar, milk in a saucepan and whisk it well. Bring to the boil over high flame. As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, remove the sauce pan from flame and in the flour. Place over high heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes until dough is smooth and coming away from the side of the pan. Set for 5 minutes to cool.

Step 2 To make the chocolate sauce, combine all the ingredients in a saucepan over medium-low flame, until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth.

Step 3 Combine the sugar and cinnamon on a large baking tray, transfer the dough into bowl, and add eggs, beating well after each addition, until mixture is smooth and glossy. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 2cm fluted nozzle.

Step 4 Add enough oil to frying pan, heat until the oil reaches 170c. Pipe three 12cm lengths of dough in to the oil, cutting the dough with kitchen scissors. Transfer churros into paper towel. Add to the cinnamon sugar and toss to coat.

Step 5 Serve churros warm with the chocolate sauce for dipping.
