Recipe By : Rosilyn Pour oil 1 inch deep into a 10 inch skillet. Heat
to 370 degrees. Bring water to boil in a 2 quart saucepan. Add butter and
salt. Heat until butter is melted. Add flour all at once; remove from
heat. Beat until mixture is smooth and is the consistency of mashed
potatoes. Beat in one egg at a time. When smooth, beat in cinnamon. Turn
mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Squeeze directly
into hot oil, making churros about 8 inches long. Cook 3 or 4 at a time
until a deep golden brown; turn occasionally. Drain over skillte, then on
paper towels. Sift powdered sugar over churros. Serve immediately. Do not
store. Makes 16 churros. Variation: (This came from Lydia Rodriguez.) Use
1 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon instead of powdered
sugar. Per serving: 1714 Calories; 82g Fat (43% calories from fat); 30g
