Churros Y Chocolate

For Churros: Bring water, butter, sugar, salt and vanilla extract to a boil. Stir in flour all at once. Cook until dough comes together and pulls away from the pot.

Place dough in a mixing bowl. Using the paddle attachment, combine eggs slowly, one at a time.

Use a pastry tip (#867 star), pipe individual churros onto parchment paper. Drop into hot oil and cook until golden brown. Once finished, roll in cinnamon and sugar.

For Chocolate: Bring milk and chai powder to a boil. Pour over chocolate and stir or mix to combine.

Heat sugar in a saucepan with a bit of water until at the soft point. Place yolks in mixing bowl and whisk until doubled in volume. Keep whisking, but slow down a bit (whisk attachment) and slowly pour sugar syrup into egg yolks. Continue this until the mixture is thick, pale and cool. Whisk whites until stiff peaks form.

Fold yolk/sugar mixture into the chocolate mixture. Then fold in the whipped cream and egg whites.
