how to make authentic Spanish Churros con Chocolate

So many of you might not know this about me, but I am Spanish. Both my parents were both born and raised in Spain and moved here in their twenties. They are both very Spanish and made sure that even though their kids were raised in America they had their Spanish traditions installed. Every summer since I was born we would go back to Madrid, where they are from and just spend the summers there with family and I really see Madrid as my second home! I love Texas, but Spain  will always be my second home to me. When through out the year when we weren't in Spain my mom wanted to make sure we were still eating Spanish foods. Every Saturday she would make us Churros con Chocolate! Now these are the real deal y'all, not the kind of Churros you get at sporting events, but the real stuff you will find in Spain! Its so easy and SO amazing! I seriously am obsessed with them, and when I have kids I will for sure be having Churros Saturdays. 

I'm going to share the recipe with y'all, some of the things you will need you have to find them at this website HERE, its a great website that actually imports things straight from Spain! So you are getting Spanish products:) 

Churros  Recipe for four servings:

2Cups of flour

2Cups of boiling water

1/2 tsp of salt

1. In a bowl combine the flour and salt

2. Then add the boiling water and work together into a paste.

3. Put the paste into a Churro maker ( You can purchase one online through " La espanola, meats" or " La tienda" these are companies that import products from Spain. Click HERE to purchase one! or HERE! 

4. In a pot or deep frying pan  add  about 2 to 3 cups of olive oil. Heat oil till very hot so that when dropping in the Churro paste it will gradually turn into a nice golden color. 

5.Strain churros and place on paper towels to drain extra oil. Make sure not to cook too many churros at one time as this will affect the heat of the oil, resulting in not very crispy churros.

6. Enjoy with a cup of hot Spanish style chocolate.

7. To make a traditional Spanish style chocolate, use this "Amalia" mix that you can also purchase through the same website HERE. Search for "Amalia" and it will be the only one that pops up, its about $5!! And it tastes AMAZING! (just like the chocolate in Spain!)  

8. You will follow the instructions on the packaging, by just mixing the appropriate amount of milk over the stove, by adding the chocolate mix first then the milk. 

9. Lastly just enjoy by mixing or dipping the Churro with sugar then dipping it in your yummy Spanish chocolate! :)
