Cheesy Bread Sticks

My friend Brandy used to work at this really cool pizza place and she filled me in on how they make their cheesy breadsticks.

Dough:
In a large bowl add:
2 C. warm water
1 1/2 Tbsp. Yeast
1 Tbsp. sugar
Let sit for a few minutes.
Then add:
Dash of salt
1 tsp. dough enhancer 
Enough flour to make a great dough. (About 3 C.)
Knead for 5 minutes.
Let rest for 10 minutes.

Roll out in a large rectangle.

Brush with Garlic butter. (I used Canola oil to save on the fat.)

Garlic butter:

Melt 1/4 C. butter in the microwave.

Add 1 tsp. Garlic powder. (I used garlic salt and it was too salty)

1/2 tsp. Italian Seasoning

 

Spread with Mozzarella cheese. I just used the cheese I had. I guess Mozzarella doesn't melt into the dough like other cheese does.

 

Fold in half.

Cut with pizza cutter in 2 inch strips.

Twist twice and place on greased cookie sheet.

Top with more garlic butter and cheese.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
