Bread Sticks

I tried this recipe out last week when we had friends over for dinner and it was a hit! It is really easy too! It is simple and goes great with lots of different dishes. I found this recipe at mcconkiemenu.blogspot.com.

Bread Sticks

1 1/2 cups warm water

2 tbs sugar
1 tbs yeast

Let sit for 5 minutes

Then add:

3 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp salt

Mix until smooth and let sit for 10 more minutes.

Divide dough in half. Roll out dough on a floured board. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and salt.Fold in half and cut into 1 inch strips. Twist before placing on cookie sheet. Let sit for 15 minutes. Repeat with second half of dough.

Bake at 400F for 7-10 minutes. Immediately after baking, brush with more butter and sprinkle with salt and grated parmesan cheese.

*You can also add parmesan to the to the dough before you cut and twist it. It turns out great!
