Step 1
Mix flour with milk and a pinch of salt until a smooth, thick batter forms.
Step 2
Heat oil in a heavy skillet to 375°F. Test with a wooden skewer—tiny bubbles should immediately form.
Step 3
Fill a churrera or piping bag with batter. Pipe 6-inch lengths directly into hot oil, using scissors to cut.
Step 4
Fry until golden brown on both sides, ~2 minutes total, then transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
Step 5
Mix sugar and cinnamon on a shallow plate. Toss warm churros in the mixture until well coated.
Step 6
Heat chocolate with cream in a small pot over medium-low, stirring, until glossy and pourable.
