Churros
Crispy on the outside and light and airy on the inside—it's no surprise to us that churros are a beloved pastry in Mexico and Spain. While you can find them fried up by a street food vendor in Mexico City (dusted with cinnamon-sugar), or served up at the breakfast table in Madrid, we think they're perfect piled on a platter for your next tapas party. For this recipe, we garnished them the Spanish way: with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar and a rich and spicy chocolate dipping sauce.
