BTW, these were made Sunday, I just wasn't able to post them.
Umm.... Yeah. So here's the story:
Basically, the recipe calls for pastry bags and a certain tip to go along with it, aka very large "star" shape. I searched around everywhere around my town that could possibly have it, you can even ask my poor mother who drove me everywhere to find it. Alas, I had to settle on a rather small one found at Michaels, and was disappointed once I found out what qualifies a "large". Later, when I got to using them, the churros... didn't exactly shape as they normally should. Let's just say that my dad dubbed them "turd-os".... Need I say more? Finally I just lost patience and put them into the fryer by the spoonful xP
Other than that, they really did taste like churros, just not with the crispy edges. Overall, I've decided to call this a success since they technically tasted the same... However, I don't think I'll make them again until I have the right equipment :)
As for the hot chocolate, it was really good. Actually, it was a little like the chocolate soup from last week. Really thick and yummy, but it was even more awesome with the churros dipped in. The author says so herself, but the cocoa really could just be a dunking sauce for them all alone.
The un-churros with my half-downed hot cocoa... Delicious!
Next time: Triple-Layer Chocolate Martini. Bye!
