Recipe Card

For the Churros:

ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • Oil, for frying

For the Mummy Decorations:

ingredients

  • White chocolate, melted
  • Candy eyes or homemade edible eyes (details below)

Method

  • Step 1

    In a medium saucepan, combine water, sugar, and butter. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

  • Step 2

    Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the flour until a dough ball forms and pulls away from the pan's sides. Allow the dough to cool briefly.

  • Step 3

    Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep-frying pan over medium heat.

  • Step 4

    Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe strips of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets.

  • Step 5

    Fry the churros until they turn golden and crisp, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Once done, place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  • Step 6

    Dip each fried churro into the melted white chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Drizzle the chocolate over the churro to create mummy-like bandages.

  • Step 7

    [Note: If you're out of candy eyes, you can create your own edible eyes using mini marshmallows by flattening a mini marshmallow as much as possible. Use a hollow tool (like a straw) to cut the marshmallow into circles. Add a dot in the center of each circle using black icing or chocolate. These will serve as the homemade edible eyes.]

  • Step 8

    Place two candy eyes or homemade edible eyes on each churro to complete the mummy's face.

  • Step 9

    Allow the white chocolate to set, securing the eyes in place on the churros.

  • Step 10

    These Mummy Churros are best served fresh.
