Instructions

Prepare the Cookie Dough:
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the vanilla extract and milk.
- Gradually add the flour and stir until well combined.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips. Set aside.
Prepare the Puff Pastry:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth any creases.
Assemble the Twists:
- Spread the prepared cookie dough evenly over half of the puff pastry sheet. Fold the other half of the pastry over the cookie dough to cover it.
- Lightly press down to seal the layers together.
- Cut the dough into 1-inch-wide strips. Twist each strip carefully and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the Twists:
- Brush each twist with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with sugar if desired.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Cool and Serve:
- Let the twists cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!

For extra flavor, drizzle the twists with melted chocolate or sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
