Churros are fantastic but never had homemade so I am looking forward to trying my hand at these babies!
BTW- did you recognize it as being "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" from the quote or from his photo? Just curious...


Yummy!! I also love churros but have never made these at home before. I can't wait to try!!


Thanks for the recipe! I haven't had a churro in years and to my dismay couldn't find a restaurant that had them either. Thanks to you I can now have them anytime I want.


Yummy I can't wait to make these. Thanks for posting.


My little boy loves churros. I'm not much of a baker, but he won't know it. I'll give these a try.


I lived in California for four years and traveled to Mexico often in our 72 Blazer, I miss the authentic churros, I will definitely try these!~!!

Be well,
Annie
