Carefully fold the dough lengthwise into thirds, like a letter. Press the edges firmly to seal securely. Cut the folded dough into 16 strips, each approximately 1 inch wide. Gently twist the ends of each strip in opposite directions to create a twisted shape. Arrange the twisted strips on top of the brown sugar and nut mixture in the prepared baking pan.
