Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and sugars for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring gently until just combined, and fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the dough into portions, roll each into a rectangle about ½ inch thick, cut into 1-inch strips, and twist them together.
  7. Place the twists on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 9-11 minutes until they have golden edges.
  8. Remove and cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
  9. Drizzle with melted chocolate if desired before serving.
