Description
Warm angel cake churro bites coated in cinnamon sugar and drizzled with a smooth glaze. A delicious snack or dessert treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 store-bought angel food cake (about 10 oz)
- Vegetable oil for frying (enough to cover 1 inch in pan)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Allow the angel food cake to thaw completely if previously frozen, then cut it into 1 inch by 1 inch cubes. Set these aside to prepare for frying.
- Heat vegetable oil in a pan over low to medium heat. Fry the cake cubes in batches without overcrowding, turning gently with a slotted spoon until they turn golden brown on all sides. This should take a few minutes per side.
- Drain the fried cake cubes on paper towels or a wire rack to remove excess oil promptly. While still warm, toss the cubes in a mixed bowl of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until they are well coated.
- Mix powdered sugar with milk to create a smooth glaze. Drizzle this over the cinnamon sugar-coated cake bites and allow the glaze to set slightly before serving.
- Serve the warm angel cake churro bites immediately for the best texture and flavor. They make a delicious snack or dessert treat.
Notes
- Ensure the oil temperature is maintained to avoid burning the cake cubes.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon sugar mixture.
