Step 1
Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep skillet to 350°F, or until a wooden spoon handle bubbles vigorously when held in the oil.
Step 2
While oil heats, mix cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl until evenly combined.
Step 3
Once oil is ready, fry churro dough in batches (don't crowd the pan) until golden brown and crispy, turning once, about 2–3 minutes per batch.
Step 4
Transfer churros to paper towels, then immediately toss in the cinnamon-sugar mixture while still warm.
Step 5
Heat chocolate and cream together in a small microwave-safe bowl, 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
Step 6
Serve warm churros with the chocolate dip on the side.
