| 1. Hot Chocolate Dipping Sauce: | 2. Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan over med-high heat. | 3. Add the semisweet and bittersweet chocolate, cocoa and milk and lower the heat to med-low. | 4. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the chocolate is thick and smooth, about 5 minutes. | 5. Reserve. | 6. Churros: | 7. Bring the water, oil and salt to a boil in a saucepan over med-high heat. | 8. Add the flour all at once and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until a smooth ball forms. | 9. Lower the heat and cook, flattening and turning the dough for 2 minutes. | 10. Cool and transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 3/8 inch star tip (the fluted edge is essential). | 11. Pour the oil to a depth of at least 1 inch in a skillet (or use a deep fryer) and heat on high until the oil quickly browns a cube of test bread. | 12. Squeeze 5 inch lengths of dough through the pastry tube into the oil - as many as will comfortably fit. | 13. Reduce the heat to med-high and fry until the churros puff and have barely begun to turn golden, about 20 seconds. *Do not overcook - the churros should be crunchy outside and soft within.*. | 14. Drain on paper towels. (If needed, you can keep them warm briefly in a 200 degee F. oven until ready to serve.). | 15. Dredge the churros in the sugar and arrange 4 on each plate. | 16. To serve, reheat the chocolate over very low heat and divide into 6 espresso or small cups placed off center on 6 dessert plates. | 17. Dip away! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
