Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 1 package pizza dough (about 1 lb)

Filling

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangular shape approximately 12×8 inches to create an even base for the filling.
  2. Add the filling: Brush the melted butter evenly over the surface of the rolled dough. Then sprinkle the brown sugar uniformly across the dough, followed by spreading the chocolate chips evenly on top to ensure every twist is flavorful.
  3. Roll and twist: Starting from one long edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Slice the log into 1-inch slices, then gently twist each slice to enhance the spiral effect and release the flavors of the filling.
  4. Arrange and bake: Place the twisted dough pieces onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature for a delicious treat.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon with the brown sugar before baking.
  • Use room temperature butter to ensure even spreading.
  • These twists can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat in a warm oven for a few minutes to regain softness and fresh-baked taste.
