Churros con Chocolate

The chocolate is thick enough to eat with a spoon, not sip like a drink.
Ridged, fried dough sticks dusted with sugar, served alongside a cup of chocolate so thick it's closer to pudding — meant for dipping, not drinking.
Why it's made this way: Fried at high heat in open-air stalls, churros were historically an easy, cheap way for workers to get a hot breakfast before a market opened.
