DONUT STICKS WITH CHOCOLATE SAUCE

Time 28m
Yield 6 to 8 servings
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- In a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed pot, heat enough peanut oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 375 degrees F.
- Mix together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
- Slice the seamless dough sheets into 1-inch strips from the shorter length of the dough. Make sure that the strips are not longer than your deep-fryer is wide. Twist each dough strip, and then drop, 3 at a time, into the fryer. Fry the donut sticks until golden brown and crisp, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, flipping with tongs about half way through. Remove the donuts from the fryer and dust with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Serve with the chocolate sauce.
- In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine the first 6 ingredients and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the chocolate, vanilla, and butter and stir until the sauce is smooth.
Tips:
- Use a good quality dark chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the sticks will taste. Look for chocolate with a cacao content of at least 60%.
- Melt the chocolate slowly and gently. Overheating chocolate can cause it to seize up and become unusable. Use a double boiler or microwave the chocolate in short bursts, stirring in between, until it is melted and smooth.
- Add your favorite mix-ins. Try adding nuts, dried fruit, or spices to the chocolate before you pour it into the molds. This will give the sticks a unique flavor and texture.
- Be patient. It takes time for the chocolate sticks to set. Don't try to rush the process by putting them in the freezer. Just let them sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
Conclusion:
Chocolate sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're perfect for parties, picnics, or just a quick snack. With a little creativity, you can make chocolate sticks in a variety of flavors and styles. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give chocolate sticks a try. You won't be disappointed!
