Instructions
- 1Boil the kettle, then measure 300ml boiling water into a jug and add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Sift the flour and baking powder into a big mixing bowl with a big pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the contents of the jug and very quickly beat into the flour with a wooden spoon until lump-free. Rest for 10-15 mins while you make the sauce.
- 2Put all the sauce ingredients into a pan and gently melt together, stirring occasionally until you have a smooth shiny sauce. Keep warm on a low heat.

Chef tips
For extra-crispy churros, make sure to deep-fry them in very hot oil. If the oil isn't at the right temperature, the dough will soak up the grease and become heavy rather than light and airy. To boost the flavor, try adding a bit of orange zest or a pinch of salt to the chocolate sauce. It's fun for kids to help roll the warm churros in cinnamon sugar right after frying!
