    use this method, it would work correctly

    <cfset consumerKey = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
    <cfset consumerSecret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
    <cfset bearerToken = ToBase64(consumerKey & ":" & consumerSecret)>
    <cfset authorization = "Basic " & bearerToken>
    <cfhttp url="https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token" method="post" charset="utf-8" >
        <cfhttpparam type="header" name="Authorization" value="#authorization#">
        <cfhttpparam type="header" name="Content-Type" value="application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8">
        <cfhttpparam type="body" value="grant_type=client_credentials">
    </cfhttp>
