How to Make It

1. Step
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add butter, brown sugar, salt, and water, and bring to a boil.
2. Step
As soon as the butter has fully melted and the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and add in flour.
3. Step
Using a wooden spoon, stir until the dough comes together to form a ball and there are no lumps.
4. Step
Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes before proceeding to the next step (to prevent accidentally cooking the eggs).
5. Step
Mix in the vanilla extract and add in the eggs, one at a time, being sure to fully incorporate each egg before adding the next.
6. Step
Once all the eggs are incorporated, transfer it to a piping bag with a large star tip.
7. Step
On a nonstick baking sheet, pipe the dough in circles leaving a hole in the center.
8. Step
Place the chocolate chips in a ring and top with remaining dough, making sure there are no gaps in between each layer.
9. Step
Transfer the tray to the freezer and freeze until solid, about 3 hours or overnight.
10. Step
Heat oil in a deep pot to 350˚F (175˚C).
11. Step
Remove the baking tray from the freezer and use a butter knife to release the churro donuts. Return any extras to the freezer while you wait to fry.
12. Step
Fry the donuts in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, until brown and the dough is cooked through.
13. Step
Drain on a paper towel before rolling in cinnamon sugar.
14. Step
Enjoy!
