Food item

About

Churros con cajeta are a delightful dessert consisting of fried dough pastries filled with a rich caramel sauce known as cajeta. This Mexican caramel is made from goat's milk, giving it a unique and complex flavor profile. The churros themselves are typically made from a choux pastry dough, which is piped into hot oil using a star tip to create their distinctive ridged shape. Once fried, they are often sprinkled with cinnamon sugar to add an extra layer of sweetness and texture. These pastries are commonly served as a dessert or snack, often accompanied by additional toppings such as whipped cream or a drizzle of salted caramel. The combination of the crispy, sweet churro and the creamy cajeta provides a satisfying contrast of textures and flavors. Churros con cajeta are popular in Mexican cuisine and are enjoyed in many parts of the world, offering a delicious and indulgent treat for any time of day.
