Easy Homemade Breadsticks

I actually found this recipe here at this website. And I love it.  Here it is again. It's great for when you're having Pizza.


1 1/2 cups of warm water
1 Tbs. active dry yeast
2 Tbs. Sugar
1 tsp. Salt
4 cups Flour
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
Garlic Powder
Parmesan Cheese

Directions: In a bowl, mix together warm water, yeast and sugar.  Let it sit for 10 minutes while the yeast activates and becomes frothy.  Then add salt.  When adding flour, add two cups, mix and then add the other two cups.  The dough should pull away from the sides of the bowl and not become sticky.  Knead for about 10 minutes. Then spray the inside of a plastic bowl with cooking spray and put the dough ball in it and cover.  Let it rise for about 15 to 20 minutes.  Preheat oven to 375F.  In a microwave safe bowl, microwave your cube of butter till all melted.  Once your dough ball has risen, take it out and the roll the dough out to just barely smaller than the pan you will use to bake your breadsticks (about an 11x13 or 2 cookie sheets if what i've done :P). On your pan, pour about half of your melted butter till it coats the pan.  Lay your rolled out dough in the pan, and using a pizza cutter, cut your dough into strips for breadsticks.  Then taking a basting brush, or just pouring over, coat the top of your breadsticks with the melted butter. Sprinkle with Garlic Powder and Parmesan Cheese.  Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 to 18 minutes.   Then pull out, let cool a little bit and ENJOY!
