Twisted Cookie Roll

A twisted cookie roll is a traditional snack in Taiwan. People rolled the cookie dough into a long stripe and whirled it into a twisted braid. Fried, twisted cookie roll is harder and chewier than the usual crackers and biscuits. However, it is the crunchy texture that made twisted cookie roll so fascinating. Sprinkled with sugar powder, sesame or pepper and salt, twisted cookie roll is a famous souvenir in Pingtung, Taiwan. Another kind of twisted cookie roll is made of more buttery dough, which can be filled with jam, cream and chocolates.
