Frying Time!

Heat a large pot filled with vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Using a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped tip, pipe about 4-inch strips of dough directly into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, flipping once to ensure even cooking. Remove the churros with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
