White Chocolate Stuffed Churro Cookies
These cookies combine the tasty flavor of cinnamon and sugar to create that delicious Churro flavor we all love! Although traditional churros are dipped in a dark chocolate sauce, I wanted to create a bit of a lighter flavor. These are fun to make and everyone will love them!If you're not a big baker, I have incorporated a recipe that uses pre-made sugar cookie mix. If you want to make dough from scratch, I have also listed that option.
