Step 1
Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high until it shimmers, about 2 minutes. A flick of water should sizzle immediately.
Step 2
Stir flour and water together in a small bowl until a thick batter forms. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
Step 3
Pipe 6-inch churro strips directly into hot oil. Fry 2-3 at a time without crowding; they should sizzle and turn golden, about 90 seconds per side.
Step 4
Flip churros gently with tongs and fry the second side until deep golden, another 90 seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
Step 5
Mix cinnamon and sugar on a shallow plate. Roll warm churros in the mixture until fully coated. Repeat until all churro dough is fried.
Step 6
Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Pour into a serving bowl and serve alongside warm churros.
