Cook
30 minutes
Serves
12
Ingredients
60g Co-op unsalted butter
½ tsp vanilla extract
6 tbsp Fairtrade caster sugar
70g Co-op self raising flour
1 large Co-op British free range egg
1 tbsp Co-op semi-skimmed milk
1 tsp cinnamon
For the sauce: - 50ml stout - 100g Co-op Irresistible Fairtrade 70% cocoa dark chocolate, broken up - 150ml condensed milk - 2 tbsp Co-op semi-skimmed milk
Method
Put the butter, vanilla and 1 tbsp of the sugar in a pan with 100ml water, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer
When the butter has melted, add the flour and beat with a wooden spoon until you have a dough, then take off the heat and allow to cool slightly
Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6, whisk the egg and milk together and add to the pan, then beat until you have a thick, smooth paste
Line a large baking tray with greaseproof paper, put the mixture in a piping bag with a star nozzle and slowly pipe 12 x 10cm churros onto the tray, leaving a 3cm gap between each
Bake them for 15 mins, until golden and firm
Meanwhile, make the sauce: put the stout in a pan and bring to the boil, allow to bubble for a minute, then reduce the heat to low
Add the remaining ingredients, stir until the chocolate has melted and the sauce is smooth, then set over a low heat until you need it
Mix together the remaining sugar and the cinnamon, then dust over the churros when they're cooked
Cool slightly, then serve with the warm sauce for dipping
