Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 2 tbsp butter, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then remove from heat and stir in 1 cup flour until a smooth dough forms.

  2. Step 2

    Beat in 2 eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Heat 1 inch of oil in a deep skillet to 350°F. Transfer dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip and pipe 4-inch strips into the hot oil.

  3. Step 3

    Fry churros in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels, then roll in 1/4 cup sugar while still warm.

  4. Step 4

    Melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1 tbsp butter in a microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over churros and top with sprinkles.

  5. Step 5

    Serve immediately while warm and crispy.
