Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Twists

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven
   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
   • Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Make the Dough
   • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
   • In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
   • Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.
   • Gradually mix in dry ingredients until combined.
   • Stir in chocolate chips.
3. Shape the Twists
   • Divide dough into small portions (about 1–2 tbsp each).
   • Roll each portion into long ropes (~6 inches).
   • Twist two ropes together gently and place on prepared baking sheet.
   • Optional: Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar for a shiny, sweet finish.
4. Bake
   • Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers are soft.
   • Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
5. Serve & Enjoy
   • Perfect with milk, coffee, or just by themselves.

Tips

• Don’t overbake — these cookies stay soft and chewy when slightly underbaked.
• For extra fun, try twisting in white chocolate chips or mini M&Ms.
• Dough can be chilled for 30 minutes before baking to make shaping easier.
