Oreos have been around forever and they’re still as popular as ever – now that’s a culinary success story if we’ve ever heard one! Another sweet treat that everyone’s crazy about are churros, the fried Spanish pastries usually served with a cinnamon sugar coating. So we thought to ourselves, what if we bring these delicious worlds together and make them collide? That’s exactly what’s happening in this recipe: homemade churros fried to perfection, then covered in an Oreo sugar coating and double stuffed with whipped Oreo cream filling! It’s basically 2 of the most delicious treats of all time, combined to make the perfect dessert hybrid!
Double Stuffed Oreo Churros
Equipment
- Piping bag with star-shaped nozzle
- Baking tray
- Parchment paper
- Frying oil
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 stick butter
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1.5 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 20 Oreos (cookie crumbs)
- 0.5 cup sugar for the coating
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 20 Oreos (cream filling)
Instructions
- Scrape the cream filling out of the Oreos, place in a bowl, and set aside for later.
- Crush the cookie part of the Oreos, mix the crumbs with sugar, and set aside for later.
- Bring the water, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to a boil. Add the flour to a separate bowl, pour the heated mixture over it, and mix well. Once the mixture has cooled slightly, stir in the eggs.
- Transfer the churro batter to a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle, pipe flat swirls onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, and freeze for about 1 hour.
- Heat some frying oil to about 350°F and fry the frozen churros for about 3 minutes each. Once they're done frying, roll the warm, fried churros in the Oreo churro coating from earlier.
- Whip the heavy cream with the Oreo cream filling you removed earlier. Using a piping bag or a spoon, spread the creamy filling over half of the cooled Oreo churros. Assemble the double stuffed Oreo churros by placing a second Oreo churro on top to make multiple dessert sandwiches.
