Ingredients
  

Crispy Angel Cake Churro Bites
  • 2 cups angel food cake mix This is the star ingredient that gives the churros their light and airy texture.
  • 1 cup water This helps to combine the dry ingredients and create a smooth batter.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract A splash of vanilla adds a lovely flavor that enhances the sweetness.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar This will be used for coating the churro bites, giving them a sweet crunch.
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon Cinnamon adds warmth and a classic churro flavor that everyone loves.
  • vegetable oil You'll need this for frying. It should be deep enough to submerge the churro bites.
