Never before have their been such unique churros. Their intense red color and delicious added flavor of the cream cheese make them a surprising and irresistible snack.

Start with a good Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain, practice at home and when you've mastered the trick, you can invite your friends over - they'll be fighting for seconds.

Preparation:

Heat the water on the stove over medium heat. When it begins to boil, add the whole wheat flour and mix. Add the cocoa, dry yeast and salt. Cook for 5 minutes while continuously stirring until you have a consistent dough.
Put the dough in a bowl. Add the eggs one by one, then the food coloring, and mix.
When everything is combined, put the dough in a pastry tube with a large, scalloped tip.
Heat the 2 cups of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain over medium heat, squeeze out one churro and fry for 3 minutes. Repeat for all churros and place them on a plate lined with absorbent paper towel to remove excess oil. Trick: to cut the churros, use scissors wet with a bit of oil so the dough doesn't stick to the scissors.
To finish, serve alongside a bowl of cream cheese.
Sprinkle with brown sugar.
