1
In a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil to 360°F over medium heat. Monitor the temperature to ensure it does not become too hot; adjust heat or remove the pot from the burner as necessary.
2
In a medium saucepan, combine milk, water, butter, 2 tsp sugar, and salt, then bring the mixture to a boil. Remove from heat, and quickly stir in vanilla extract and flour, mixing until the dough is smooth and lump-free.
3
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip. Over the hot oil, pipe out 1 to 1.5 inches of dough and use clean scissors to cut the dough, allowing it to drop into the oil. Work in small batches and avoid overcrowding.
4
Fry the churros until golden brown, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking together. Use a wire skimmer to remove the churros and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels.
5
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon. Toss the warm, drained churros in the sugar mixture to evenly coat.
6
Optionally, melt 1/2 cup of semisweet chocolate chips and serve as a dipping sauce with the churros.
