This is such an easy recipe and has a wonderful delicious payoff. Especially since I only seem to make them whenever I am making Pizzas and have extra pizza dough.
Last night I was making pizza. Just for my wife and myself, But the recipe for dough I use makes 4 balls of pizza dough (An easy recipe, no rising or kneading. Kitchenaid easy and ready to use immediately (but best of you let it cold rise in the fridge for a couple of hours)). You can find the recipe for the bread stick dough by clicking HERE.Once you have the dough the rest is more technique...
Roll the dough into a square
Spread butter, cheese and spices on the square.
Fold 1/3rd of the dough onto the center third, and 1/3rd from the top onto that new thick center.
Cut into 1 inch "sticks".
Twist and Bake.
And SHOUT, "Oh Boy, BREAD STICKS"!!!
Fantastic leftovers and would make interesting dinner rolls. Feel free to adapt this with different cheese and spice mixes. I had Taco items handy (again, leftovers).
Enjoy indeed!
