Cheer-up Churros

Whilst not entirely a damp squib, my girly weekend in Malaga was certainly showery with the odd clap of thunder. Wet enough to cancel the procession of La Virgen de la Victoria and stormy enough to prevent sunbathing on the beach, the light at the end of the tunnel came in the form of Sunday churros with chocolate dipping sauce. OMG - YUM!

Churros are deep fried dough traditionally from Spain and Portugal. The dough is piped through a nozzle, either long, straight and thick, or thin ones looped or knotted. Once out of the oil they are usually rolled in sugar (sometimes with cinnamon) or dipped in chocolate sauce. 

We visited Cafeteria Casa Aranda in Malaga for our delicious churros but they can often be bought as street food and eaten as a decadent breakfast or a sweet afternoon treat.

When in Spain ... It would be rude not to.
