Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), with racks in the upper and lower third. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, sugar, and baking soda together in a large bowl. Set aside.
- Beat butter using the paddle attachment of an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Gradually add flour mixture and beat on medium-low speed until just combined, about 2 minutes. Divide dough into quarters.
- Working with one quarter at a time, roll dough between 2 large sheets of parchment until 1/8-inch thick. Chill between the parchment on a baking sheet until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Cut out enough cookies to fill the 2 baking sheets with 2-by-1 1/2-inch rectangles or your desired shapes. Arrange 1 inch apart on the sheets. Brush tops of cookies with some of the egg and sprinkle evenly with a portion of turbinado sugar. Keep unused dough in the fridge.
- Bake cookies, 2 sheets at a time, until pale golden, 14 to 15 minutes, rotating pans after 7 minutes. Let cookies cool on sheets for about 5 minutes, then carefully move them to a wire rack to cool completely before dipping. Cut, brush, and bake the remaining cookie dough in the meantime.
- Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 30-second intervals until melted and smooth, about 1 1/2 minutes. Either dip cookies halfway in chocolate mixture and let excess drip off, or use a fork and drizzle chocolate Jackson Pollack-style over cookies over a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle salt over chocolate. Let rest until chocolate sets, about 1 hour.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the butter and Parmesan cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
- Don't overcook the pasta. It should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
- Be careful not to burn the butter when making the sauce. It should be melted and bubbly, but not brown.
- Add the pasta to the sauce immediately after it is cooked. This will help the pasta absorb the sauce and flavors.
- Serve the pasta hot, topped with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.

Macaroni with Danish butter sauce is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal.
