Bread Sticks

So normally these look a lot nicer and more uniform but it just wasn't happening tonight. They were still delicious though. I got this recipe from my mom who I believe got it from one of her best friends, Denise. The best thing about these bread sticks is that they hardly take any time at all! You can be making dinner at 5pm and decide you want bread to go with it - no problem. These take from 30-45 minutes from start to finish.

Bread Sticks

1 Tbsp yeast disolved in 1 1/2 cups warm water. Add 3 Tbsp sugar. Let set for a few minutes. Add 1/2 tsp salt and 3 cups flour.

Mix and knead for 3 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes. Melt cube of butter (I use about 3/4 cube) on jelly roll pan in oven. Roll dough out on floured surface into a rectangle. Cut into strips using a pizza cutter. (I cut dough in half width wise and then cut long strips length wise.) Dab both sides of strips in butter as you lay strips on the pan. Sprinkle with garlic salt, parsley flakes, seasoned salt, parmesan cheese - one or all of them. Let raise on pan for 10-20 minutes. Bake at 375 for approximately 15 minutes.
