Breadsticks

This is my mom's breadstick recipe and they are so yummy! They are perfect with a bowl of hot, creamy soup.

Breadsticks

1 1/2 c. warm water

2 T. sugar

1 T. yeast

1/2 t. salt

3 c. flour, plus more for rolling out

5 T. butter, melted

garlic salt

parmesan cheese

Stir together water, sugar, yeast and salt in a mixing bowl. Let sit until slightly foamy.

Mix in flour. Dough will be very sticky. Cover and rest for 10-20 minutes.

Dump onto a well-floured surface. Sprinkle top with a little flour, too.

Press with hands, or roll out to about 1/2" thick (maybe a little less.) With a pizza cutter, cut dough into 14 breadsticks.

Pour a little melted butter into a cookie sheet. Roll each breadstick in butter and twist. Add more butter as needed.

Sprinkle with garlic salt and parmesan cheese. Cover and let rise for 10-20 minutes.

Bake at 375 F for 20 minutes.

Dump hot breadsticks out, upside-down.

Serve hot.

This is one of my favorite comfort foods. Enjoy!
