Churros are one of my favorite Spanish desserts. Made with some simple pantry items, they taste like cinnamon donuts!

Classic Spanish Churro Dessert

all-purpose flour

vanilla extract

water

unsalted butter (diced)

sugar

salt

vegetable oil

cinnamon sugar

Add butter, sugar, water, and salt to a saucepan over medium-high heat.

Bring it to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium and add flour, stirring constantly with a spatula until the mixture is smooth.

Remove from heat and transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Let it cool for a few minutes.

Add vanilla and egg. Blend using an electric hand mixer. Beat until smooth.

Transfer the mixture to a large piping bag fitted with a rounded star tip.

Heat about 2-inch vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat to 350 F degrees.

Pipe the mixture into the oil, and cut end with kitchen scissors.

Fry about 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Transfer a plate lined with paper towels.

Coat with cinnamon sugar. Serve and enjoy!

If there’s one dish that holds a special place in my heart, it’s my Abuelo’s Spanish rice pudding (Arroz con Leche). This traditional Spanish dessert is rich, creamy, and comforting.

Arroz con Leche (Abuelo's Spanish rice pudding)

full cream milk

white sugar

Arborio rice

tsp vanilla extract

thickened cream

Heat milk &amp; rice: In a large pot on a medium heat, bring your milk, sugar and vanilla extract to the boil. Add the rice to the pot and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down immediately and cook the rice for 30 minutes on a gentle simmer. Stir quite consistently to ensure the milk does not burn.

Temper eggs: Once the rice is cooked to you liking, add 6 tablespoons of the cooked rice pudding to the whisked egg yolks and stir through quite vigorously. This will temper the egg yolks and prevent them from scrambling.

Eggs &amp; cream: Add the egg yolk mixture and cream into the pot with the rice pudding. Turn the heat to low and simmer for an additional 5 minutes while stirring occasionally.

Finish: Transfer your rice pudding to a large bowl and sprinkle with cinnamon. This dish can be eaten hot or cold and can be stored in the fridge for several days.

Almost my recipe.... I beat the white of the eggs and add it once the pudding is cooked to have a fluffy rice pudding....
