Ingredients
- For the Cookie Dough:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (heat-treated)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- For the Twists:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To make the cookie dough, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir in vanilla, salt, and heat-treated flour. Add milk to bring it together, then fold in mini chocolate chips.
- Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface. Spread cookie dough evenly over half the sheet. Fold over the other half to cover.
- Press gently and roll lightly to seal. Cut into 1-inch strips and twist each strip into spirals.
- Place twists on the baking sheet. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden and puffed. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Add cinnamon to cookie dough for extra warmth.
- Drizzle baked twists with chocolate or caramel for richness.
- Swap cookie dough for Nutella or peanut butter for variety.
- Cut smaller strips for mini twists and reduce bake time.
- Add espresso powder for mocha flavor.
