Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional, for melting drizzle)

Additional cinnamon-sugar mixture (1/4 cup sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon cinnamon for rolling)

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.

    Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture becomes a thick, cohesive dough. If it seems too crumbly, you can add a tablespoon of milk to bring it together.

      Form Churro Bites: Take small portions of the dough (about a tablespoon) and roll them into bite-sized balls. Continue until all the dough is shaped into balls.

        Coat in Cinnamon-Sugar: In a shallow dish, mix together the additional cinnamon and sugar. Roll each churro bite in the mixture until fully coated.

          Chocolate Drizzle (optional): If desired, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the churro bites for extra decadence.

            Chill: Place the churro bites on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set the bites and enhance their flavors.

              Serve: Enjoy the churro bites chilled or at room temperature. They make a perfect treat for sharing or for a sweet snack any time!
