Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare baking sheets by lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a larger bowl, cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well, then stir in vanilla extract. Gradually fold in dry ingredients and chocolate chips.
  3. Divide dough into two portions. Roll each into a rectangle about ½ inch thick, cut into 1-inch wide strips, and twist together into a spiral shape.
  4. Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden brown.
  5. Allow the twists to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
  6. Drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled twists and serve.
