Cinnamon Churro Chips + Salted Hot Chocolate Sauce - FOOD PHOTO SHOOT

in photography •  7 years ago  (edited)

I know I say this a lot so it’s probably losing its credibility…..but guys, these are Dangerous with a capital D!

I decided that I needed to make something sweet and salty as it's a holiday week here in the States.

So what makes these chips so amazing? Well, it's like the best spin on a dessert ever! I think one of the main reasons they seem so extra dangerous to me is that I found a way to shortcut the process and make them from scratch, but also really easy to crank out. At least way easier than I thought they’d be. I cheated by throwing all attempts at perfection to the wind and just rolling the tortilla dough into big sheets and cooking them on my pancake skillet. The end result is a combination of perfect and then very ugly chips, but guess what? Nobody cared.

I mean, if you’re making them for a party and you want to impress, by all means cut them all completely symmetrical and even. But if you’re making them for a munchy family to devour, it’s not worth the time because they taste amazing either way.

Another thing that I probably shouldn’t tell you is that these are just as good when you leave them plain with just some salt and trade out the sweet hot chocolate with salsa and guacamole. That was a huge hit that I know I’ll be doing a lot more often now that everyone knows about them. What is it about crispy salty carbs that’s so addictive? Don’t forget that I warned you guys…….

Very nicely done! I won't grow tired of staring at your artwork. Pleasing three senses at the same time doesn't 'just happen.' Keep up the hard work and dedication. I salute you. I just have a question. Have you used a Canon EOS1300D? My friend is about to purchase one. I'm not sure how it's going with his plan but he wrote an article about it. Maybe we can help him out. Thank you!

I have not used a EOS1300D. I am pretty much loyal to Nikon. Thanks so much for the great comment @hiroyamagishi

Wow i want some!
It looks so delicious
Recipe noted!
I'm gonna cook it someday.

I do hope you give it a try @plugz. And welcome to steemit

Churros are delicious no matter what shape they are in as long as you serve them with Hot Chocolate Sauce! And for my guys who like a bit of heat a little drop of hot sauce in the chocolate. I know, weird!

Actually, I do have a recipe in mind for some spiced up chocolate. Stay tuned. Thanks again for the great comments @cecicastor

Hello, I love chocolate, a big hug, vita my blog 😆

If you add some dry coconut mm slice and little crushed wall nut to that to get some soft bites in between that crispiness.. thanks for sharing your yummy yummy with us.. @gringalicious

You're very welcome @amrumk!

just look at it already delicious let alone enjoy it, would be really delicious

Thanks so much @doyanphotraphy

your welcome @gringalicious

Ugly chips! I know what you mean, but they look beautiful to me. Anything that has a homemade look you just know is going to be awesome! To see those picture perfect Tostido scoops or what have you...blah. Your chips have character and they just look dangerously delish! another great post @gringalicious! Have a fantastic day! -Dan

Thanks so much again, Dan for your consistently great comments. Yes home made is way better and you're correct, they can be dangerous - LOL

Olalala... This is fabulous, looks so yummy :)

I appreciate you saying that @pepe.maya. Thanks so much for taking the time to post such a nice comment

Damn, I hate repeating the same compliment but you got some mad food styling skills! Not sure if people appreciate how hard it is to get food photography looking good, easy to recognise when it's good but hard to replicate!!

Nice work and I love the creativity with this recipe and that you actually made your own tortillas rather than using store-bought, respect!

Thanks so much for recognizing the effort involved @phamished. It can get crazy sometimes and I still have not conquered the problem of taking too many pictures. After every shoot, it takes me forever to decide which shots are the best and worth putting even more time into editing. I've never met a photo that I didn't at least touch up a bit - LOL . The technology of digital photography is so amazing.

I want some! Yum!

Thanks @lifes-a-donut !
