Cooking Instructions!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, warm water, sugar, salt and olive oil. Stir until the dough comes together.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough back into the bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope about 8 inches long.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the minced garlic, chopped parsley and salt. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant.
Brush the garlic butter mixture over each breadstick, making sure to coat all sides. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve warm and enjoy!
