A churro is a fried dough pastry predominantly choux based snack.
Churros are popular in Spain, Portugal, France and South Western US. Nutella
stuffed churros features a homemade pastry that is deep fried until golden and
stuffed with Nutella. All it takes is five ingredients, 45 minutes and chocolate sauce or Nutella. Of course homemade
churros aren’t without a cinnamon sugar shower but these crispy warm churros
are a treat with chocolate dipping sauce. I made this dessert especially on
Christmas. These made me fall in love with the combination of Nutella and
Cinnamon. It’s warm, sweet and inviting and smells like heaven. They are
crunchy on outside and fluffy on the inside and when that thick and creamy
Nutella oozes out you can’t help but go to your happy place. Sharing the
step-by-step pictures for this delectable homemade Nutella Stuffed Churros. I hope you love
these as much as we did.
