Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup of unsalted butter, ½ cup of granulated sugar, and ½ cup of brown sugar for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually combine the flour mixture into the butter-sugar mixture, then fold in 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the dough into two portions, roll out to ½ inch thick, cut 1-inch strips, twist them together, and seal the ends.
  7. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown; remove while slightly underbaked.
  8. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on baking sheets before transferring to wire racks. Drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.
