Method

Churro Preparation

1

Make the Churro Dough

In a saucepan, combine the water, butter, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, remove from heat and stir in the flour until a dough forms.

2

Incorporate Eggs

Allow the dough to cool slightly, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the dough is smooth and glossy.

Cheesy Filling

Prepare the Filling

In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and chives until well combined.

Prepare for Frying

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag fitted with a star tip.

5

Pipe and Fill

Pipe 4-6 inch strips of churro dough into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Fill with Cheese

Once slightly cooled, use a piping bag to fill the churros with the cheesy filling.
