Shop Ingredients

Build your cart with Tasty, then choose how you want to get your order from Walmart.

  1. In a 1.5-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, add butter, brown sugar, salt, and water, and bring to a boil.
  2. As soon as the butter has fully melted and the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and add in flour. Using a wooden spoon, stir until the dough comes together to form a ball (about 1 minute).
  3. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes before proceeding to the next step (to prevent accidentally cooking the eggs).
  4. Mix in the vanilla extract and add in the eggs, one at a time, being sure to fully incorporate each egg before adding the next.
  5. Once all the eggs are incorporated, transfer it to a piping bag with a small star tip.
  6. Invert a muffin tin and spray thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray. Pipe the dough around the inverted cups in spirals to form the bowls. Immediately transfer the tray to the freezer and freeze until solid (about 3 hours or overnight).
  7. Heat oil in a deep pot to 350˚F (175˚C). Remove the muffin tin from the freezer and flex it to release the churro bowls (you may need to also use a butter knife under the bottom edge to initially release them). Return any extras to the freezer while you wait to fry.
  8. Fry them in batches, until nicely browned, no more than 3 minutes at a time. Be sure to carefully turn them so they fry evenly.
  9. Once desired color is reached, remove them from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate. Dab off any excess oil then roll them in cinnamon sugar.
  10. Fill with your favorite ice cream and toppings.
  11. Enjoy!

    If you don’t want to use the oil, bake it at 400F for 25 minutes!

    Add a lot of cooking spray to the pan! Also make sure the churro dough is completely frozen! This was so good! Try it with horchata ice cream 🍨😋

    To pipe the churro bowls into what it looks like on the tasty video is EXTREMELY difficult- closer to impossible for me 😩 However, they do taste good. It’s something I could see myself making every once in a while, but very rarely unfortunately. But hey, it was definitely worth a try and the experience. Thanks tasty.

    Make sure to use a lot of nonstick spray! I used some but it apparently was not enough and it was a workout getting them off the pan without breaking them! Other than that they were pretty good and I would definitely make again :)

    i made these and they turned out perfect! it helped to put the mix in the fridge for about 5 mins after putting it in the piping bag just to keep it firm while piping. did this and i got the perfect bowl shape and it tasted delicious
