The discounter first launched the puddings back in May last year - and sold a bag every six seconds in the first three days.
The snacks arrived in stores on Thursday last week but they're only around for as long as stocks last so you might want act fast.
The popular puds come in 500g bags and cost just 99p for the lot but it doesn't come with any dipping chocolate so you'll have to provide your own.
They're not the only supermarket to sell the Mediterranean delicacies - you can pick up a box of 12 mini churros filled with chocolate and hazlenut at Tesco for £2.
Here's how to cut the cost of your grocery shop
SAVING on your shop can make a big difference to your wallet. Here are some tips from Hannah Maundrell, editor of Money.co.uk, about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:
- Write yourself a list – Only buy items that you need. If it isn’t on your list, don’t put it in the trolley
- Create a budget – Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
- Never shop hungry – you are far more likely to buy more food if your tummy is rumbling
- Don’t buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit – The extra they’ll charge for chopping can be eye watering
- Use social media – follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
- Be disloyal – You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
- Check the small print – It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
- Use your loyalty cards – Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently – work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards
But bear in mind, you will be paid twice as much for half the pudding so you'l be getting a far better deal at Lidl.
The churros come pre-cooked so all you need to do is heat them up in the oven for 15 minutes and serve with your favourite topping.
They're being stocked as part of it's Spanish food Sol Mar range launched as it's "Flavour of the Week".
