In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt until combined; set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with the brown and granulated sugars until pale and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and stir in the vanilla extract until just combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet in two additions and mix until just combined; fold in chocolate chips by hand.
Turn the dough onto plastic wrap, shape it into a log, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Divide the chilled dough into 12 equal pieces, roll each piece into ropes, and twist two ropes together.
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 190°C (375°F) for 10–12 minutes.
Let cool on the sheet for 3 minutes before transferring to a rack.

For a chewier texture, consider using a mix of chocolate chip sizes. Chill shaped dough for uniform results.
