Oh my goodness, y’all! Let me tell you about these absolutely divine Deep-Fried Nutella-Stuffed Churro Bites that have been driving my family absolutely crazy! Every time I make these bad boys, they disappear faster than my patience on a Monday morning! 😅
Listen up, because I’m about to share my secret weapon for becoming everyone’s favorite person at potlucks and family gatherings. These little bites of heaven combine the crispy, cinnamon-sugar coating of traditional churros with a warm, gooey Nutella center that’ll make your taste buds do the cha-cha! 💃
Before we dive in, let me just say – if you’re counting calories, honey, look away now! This is pure indulgence, and I make zero apologies for it!
What You’ll Need:
– 1 cup water
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 3 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Nutella
– Vegetable oil for frying
– 1 cup sugar mixed with 2 tablespoons cinnamon
Y’all ready to make some magic happen? Here’s how we do it:
1. First things first, grab your saucepan and bring water, butter, and salt to a boil. Trust me, the anticipation is already killing me!
1. Remove from heat and dump in that flour all at once. Stir like your life depends on it until you get a smooth ball of dough. Let it cool for about 5 minutes (perfect time to check your social media, just saying! 😉).
1. Beat in those eggs one at a time until your mixture is smooth and glossy. Add vanilla extract and mix well.

1. Now comes the fun part! Put your dough in a piping bag and pipe 2-inch strips onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pop these in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
1. Meanwhile, heat your oil to 375°F. Don’t skip the thermometer, ladies – we’re not trying to burn the house down!
1. Here’s the secret that makes these irresistible: Take each frozen dough strip, add a small dollop of Nutella in the center, and fold the dough over to seal it. Pinch those edges like you’re holding onto your last bit of sanity during a sale at Target!
1. Fry these babies in batches until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes each side). Drain on paper towels and roll in that cinnamon-sugar mixture while still warm.
The result? Crispy, warm, Nutella-oozing bites of pure bliss! When you break one open and see that chocolate hazelnut goodness streaming out… honey, it’s a religious experience! 🙌
I can’t even tell you how many marriage proposals I’ve gotten just from making these! (Sorry, fellas – already taken! 😘)
