- 31 tablespoon sugar
- 4½ teaspoon salt
- 51 cup all-purpose flour
- 63 large eggs
- 71 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- 1
Combine water, butter, sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a rolling boil, then add flour all at once and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the dough pulls away from the sides and forms a smooth ball, about 2 minutes.
- 2
Transfer dough to a stand mixer or bowl. Beat in eggs one at a time on medium speed, then add vanilla, beating after each addition until the dough is smooth, glossy, and slowly falls in thick ribbons from a spoon.

Heat oil in a deep skillet to 375°F. Transfer dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 6-inch lengths of dough into the hot oil, cutting with scissors, and fry in batches for 3–4 minutes per side until deep golden and crispy.

Drain churros on paper towels for 1 minute, then roll immediately in the cinnamon-sugar mixture while still hot.

Make the chocolate sauce: bring cream to a simmer, pour over chopped chocolate, let sit 1 minute, then whisk with butter until glossy and smooth. Serve churros immediately alongside the warm chocolate dipping sauce.
