Pizza Factory Twisted Breadsticks

Ingredients:
1 T. yeast
2 T. sugar
1 1/2 C. warm water
1 T. oil
1 tsp. salt
3 1/2 C. flour

3/4 C. melted butter - divided
3/8 tsp. granulated garlic
1/2 tsp. dried rosemary leaves
1/4 tsp. Season All
1 T. Parmesan cheese
8 - 1/4 inch wooden dowels cut into 18 inch lengths coated in vegetable oil

Directions:

Mix the yeast, sugar and water and let sit for a couple of minutes to dissolve the yeast. Add the oil, salt and flour and knead by hand or with your mixer with a dough hook for about 5 minutes.

Cover and let rise until double.

Divide dough into 8 equal parts, about 4 oz. each if you want to use a kitchen scale. Lightly flour your hands and roll the dough into about an 16-18 inch
long "snake". Moisten the top of your dowel or skewer and begin wrapping the dough around loosely. Moisten a little where the breadstick will end too. Pinch to secure the dough at the top and bottom. Leave about 5 inches at the end of the dowel, if you are using the longer dowels.

Hang over the edge of a 9x13 inch cake pan with all of the dough inside the pan. Let them rise until doubled. Brush with 1/4 C. melted butter.

Heat oven to 375. Bake at 375 for about 15- 20 minutes or until just golden.

Meanwhile mix the remaining 1/2 C. melted butter, seasonings and parmesan cheese.

When the breadsticks come out of the oven, brush them with the seasoned melted butter mixture.
