Golden, chewy, and shaped into playful spirals, these Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Twists blend nostalgic chocolate chip flavor with a bakery-style presentation.

Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups all‑purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips evenly.
  7. Divide dough into equal portions; roll each into a rope about 1 inch thick.
  8. Twist each rope into a spiral and place on the baking sheet, leaving space between.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and centers still look slightly soft.
  10. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • For a nutty twist, swap half the chocolate chips for peanut butter chips.
  • For a double chocolate version, replace ¼ cup flour with unsweetened cocoa powder.
  • Refrigerate shaped dough for 15 minutes before baking to help hold the spiral shape better.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in a 300 °F oven for 3–5 minutes or microwave for 10–15 seconds until warmed through.
