Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat the Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Cream butter with sugars until light and fluffy, then beat in eggs and vanilla. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, then fold in chocolate chips.
  3. Shape the Twists: Roll the dough into rectangles about ½ inch thick. Cut into strips and twist each strip together, sealing the ends.
  4. Bake: Place twists on prepared sheets and bake for 9-11 minutes until golden edges appear.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow twists to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Drizzle melted chocolate over the top if desired!
