Mexican Dessert Recipe
Churros

Here is a delicious Mexican dessert recipe for your guests. Churros are basically fried dough with sugar sprinkled on top. They kind of remind me of Elephant Ears I used to get at the state fair.
Go ahead and make some Easy Chocolate Fondue to dip them in and be prepared to make some more.

Mexican Dessert Recipes Tip:
Make your own pastry bag by filling a gallon-sized Ziploc bag with the batter and cutting off one of the bottom corners of the bag. Then squeeze the batter through the hole.
