CHURRO ICE CREAM BOWLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a 1.5-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, add butter, brown sugar, salt, and water, and bring to a boil.
• As soon as the butter has fully melted and the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and add in flour. Using a wooden spoon, stir until the dough comes together to form a ball (about 1 minute).
• Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes before proceeding to the next step (to prevent accidentally cooking the eggs).
• Mix in the vanilla extract and add in the eggs, one at a time, being sure to fully incorporate each egg before adding the next.
• Once all the eggs are incorporated, transfer it to a piping bag with a small star tip.
• Invert a muffin tin and spray thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray. Pipe the dough around the inverted cups in spirals to form the bowls. Immediately transfer the tray to the freezer and freeze until solid (about 3 hours or overnight).
• Heat oil in a deep pot to 350˚F (175˚C). Remove the muffin tin from the freezer and flex it to release the churro bowls (you may need to also use a butter knife under the bottom edge to initially release them). Return any extras to the freezer while you wait to fry.
• Fry them in batches, until nicely browned, no more than 3 minutes at a time. Be sure to carefully turn them so they fry evenly.
• Once desired color is reached, remove them from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate. Dab off any excess oil then roll them in cinnamon sugar.
• Fill with your favorite ice cream and toppings.
• Enjoy!

COOKIES AND CREAM CHURRO ICE CREAM BOWLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Separate the chocolate sandwich cookies from the cream filling into 2 separate medium bowls. Set the cream filling aside.
• Add the cookies and flour to a food processor and pulse until broken down into fine crumbs.
• In a large pot over medium heat, combine the water, butter, and ⅓ cup granulated sugar. Bring to a boil.
• Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cookie crumb mixture with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together in a ball.
• Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and stir until completely incorporated and the batter is smooth. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a wide star tip.
• Invert a 12-cup muffin tin and grease generously with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pipe the churro dough in spirals around the inverted cups to form 6 bowls, spacing evenly. Smooth the tops with a spoon or an offset spatula. Transfer the pan to the freezer and freeze until solid, at least 3 hours, or overnight.
• Heat the canola oil in a deep pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Remove the muffin tin from the freezer and flex it to release the churro bowls. You may need to wiggle a butter knife under the bottom edges to loosen the bowls first.
• Add the remaining cup of sugar to a shallow bowl.
• Working with 1 or 2 bowls at a time (return any remaining bowls to the freezer until ready to fry), fry the churro bowls in the hot oil, turning occasionally for even frying, until fully cooked through, about 4 minutes. Using a spider or slotted spoon, remove the churro bowls from the oil and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Dab off any excess oil, then roll in the sugar.
• Make the whipped cream: To the bowl with the reserved cream filling, add a splash of the heavy cream and, with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed, beat until smooth. Gradually add the remaining cream and beat until stiff peaks form, 3-4 minutes.
• Fill the churro bowls with cookies and cream ice cream, drizzle with chocolate sauce, and finish with a dollop of the whipped cream. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE COOKIE CHURRO ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Crush 6 of the chocolate sandwich cookies with your hands into a medium bowl. Pour the milk over the cookies. Set aside to soak for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pulse the remaining 6 cookies in a food processor until broken into small pieces. Add the cocoa powder and pulse until the cookies are finely ground into a dark powder. Add the flour and pulse until combined. Sift the dry ingredients into a medium bowl; set aside.
• Strain the cookie milk into a heavy-bottomed saucepot (discard the soaked cookie crumbs). Add the butter, salt and 1/2 cup water. Cook over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is just below a simmer, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the dry ingredients. Add the eggs one by one, whisking vigorously for 30 seconds after each addition, until a smooth dough comes together. Scrape the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a small star tip.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Pipe the dough into 2 1/4-inch rounds starting in the center and moving in a circular motion. Repeat until all of the dough has been piped (about 24 rounds). Place the baking sheets in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
• When ready to cook the churros, pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed saucepot fitted with a deep-frying thermometer. Heat the oil over medium heat until the thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and top with a wire cooling rack. Put the sugar in a wide dish.
• Carefully lower the churros a few at a time into the hot oil. Be sure not to crowd the oil or the temperature will drop. Control the heat to maintain 350 degrees F. Fry until the churros rise to the surface of the oil, about 2 minutes. Drain on the prepared cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining churros. Allow the churros to cool slightly.
• Toss the churros in the sugar until completely coated, then tap gently against the side of the dish to remove any excess. Put the churros back on the cooling rack.
• Scoop about 1/4 cup of the ice cream onto 12 of the churros. Top the scoops of ice cream with the remaining churros and gently press down to create sandwiches. Serve immediately.

CHURROS ICE CREAM SANDWICH

Steps:

• Boil the kettle, then measure 300ml boiling water into a jug and add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Sift the flour and baking powder into a large mixing bowl with a generous pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the contents of the jug and very quickly beat into the flour with a wooden spoon until lump-free.
• Cut out 6 10cm x 10cm squares of baking parchment and grease them well with oil. Transfer the churro batter to a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle, and pipe spiraled circles of batter onto the parchment. This is easiest if you start from the centre, and swirl the nozzle round and round until you reach the edge of the paper, avoiding any gaps. Chill for 45 mins, or up to 2 hrs, until the batter feels firm to the touch.
• Fill a large deep saucepan one-third full of oil. Heat until a cube of bread browns in 45 seconds - 1 min (about 180C). Cover a tray with kitchen paper and mix the caster sugar and cinnamon together.
• Remove the churros from the fridge and drop 2 or 3 directly into the pan, discarding the parchment. Fry until golden brown and crisp, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on the kitchen paper-lined tray. Carry on cooking the rest of the dough in batches, sprinkling the cooked churros with some cinnamon sugar as you go. Once you've cooked all the churros, toss with any remaining cinnamon sugar and sandwich with balls of your favourite ice cream.
