This is the classic Spanish/Mexican dessert with a ChocoVivo twist. We filled our Cacao into a baked (not fried) cinnamon encrusted churro. Chocolate dipping sauce makes this a complete dessert.

STEP 1Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place two baking sheets on top of each other to bake the churros. This protects your delicate pastry. Line parchment ; set aside.STEP 2In a medium saucepan, add water, brown sugar, salt, and butter. Place over medium-high heat. Heat until butter is melted and mixture starts to simmer. As soon as it is simmering, whisk in the flour. Whisk until there are no flour lumps and a dough ball has formed.STEP 3 Now, using a wooden spoon you want to stir the dough around your pot and cook it for about a minute over LOW heat. The mixture will clump and pull away from the sides of the pan. Just do it for a minute, then take it off the heat and set aside. STEP 4In a jug, combine eggs and vanilla and whisk together. STEP 5Now, using a wooden spoon you want to stir the dough around your pot and cook it for about a minute over LOW heat. The mixture will clump and pull away from the sides of the pan. Just do it for a minute, then take it off the heat and set aside. STEP 6Transfer your dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. Pipe dough into long churros on the parchment-covered pans. Make sure to pipe them nice and thick. Do this by putting pressure on the bag and piping slowly.Leave about 2 inches of space between the churros. STEP 7Bake for around 18-22 minutes or until golden brown. THEN turn off the oven and leave them in there for 10 minutes to dry a little. This step helps them keep their shape and not going flat once they cool.STEP 8Combine sugar, cinnamon and salt in a ziplock baggie. Take the churros straight from the oven and toss them in the Roll churros in the mixture until well covered. It is best to do this when the churros are warm and fresh from the oven. STEP 9Make a thicker chocolate sauce(50 grams cacao powder with 100ml of water/milk) and insert into a pastry syringe to then fill cooled off churros full of chocolate.
