As a twist on this old favorite, BuzzFeed Food has incorporated red velvet into the mix — we can't say "yum" enough times. Incorporating all of the same elements of a traditional churro, plus the red velvet and cream cheese icing of course, these red velvet churros are straight out of our chocolate-y dreams. Because these are red velvet churros, I made two dips: cream cheese frosting, and an extra chocolaty Nutella dip. Cream cheese because it's classic with red velvet anything.
