Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8-10 times., Roll dough into a 14x10-in. rectangle. Cut in half lengthwise; cut each half widthwise into 1-in. strips. Place butter in a shallow bowl. Dip each strip into butter; twist two to three times., Place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Sprinkle with cheese and garlic salt. Bake at 450° for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Slowly add milk to form a soft dough.
• Knead on a floured surface 4 times.
• Roll into 10 inch by 5 inch rectangle.
• Cut into 12 sticks.
• Put butter in 13x9 baking dish.
• Roll breadsticks in butter.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Bake at 425° for 16 minutes, or until golden.

Steps:

• Dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar and yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
• Beat flour, oil, egg, salt, remaining sugar, and remaining warm water into yeast mixture until smooth, adding more flour if needed to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured work surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to cover completely with oil. Cover bowl with a damp towel and place in a warm area until dough is doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Punch dough down and turn onto a floured work surface. Divide dough into 18 pieces and shape each into a 6-inch rope. Arrange dough pieces on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart; cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about 25 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove cover from dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Whisk butter and garlic salt together in a bowl; brush over each breadstick. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the baguette in half crossways, and cut away the very last bit of the heel ends. Take each baguette half and slice in half lengthwise (as if you were going to make a sandwich). You should now have 4 equal pieces of baguette. Cut each quarter lengthwise into 3 strips, yielding 12 breadsticks. Brush with the olive oil and sprinkle evenly with the paprika, salt, and pepper. Bake until golden, about 7 minutes. Serve standing upright in a vase or large jar.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• Unroll pizza dough onto a greased cookie sheet and brush with butter.
• Sprinkle cheeses and spices evenly over the dough.
• With a pizza cutter, cut dough lengthwise into 12 long strips. Then cut those in half to make 24 strips.
• Do not seperate strips.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown.
• Recut along each strip and remove from cooking sheet.
• Serve sticks warm with marinara sauce.

Steps:

• Measure your flour, salt, garlic powder, parsley, and baking powder into a big bowl. Stir the dry ingredients together so that they are evenly distributed throughout the flour. Now, pour in the milk. Stir with a big spoon until you have a ball of dough that leaves the sides of the bowl. You may have to dust the ball of dough with a little flour if it seems sticky to you. Gently knead the ball of dough right there in the bowl 5 or 6 times. Now place your dough on the counter. You may use a piece of waxed paper under the dough if you like. Using a rolling pin roll out the dough to a rectangular shape. If the edges become uneven, use your hands to reshape into a rectangle. It doesn't have to be perfect. You are aiming for a rectangle that will fi into a 9- by 13-inch pan. When you get the dough the right size, set it aside.
• Meanwhile, place the margarine in the 9- by 13-inch pan and place the pan in a 425F oven to melt the margarine. When the margarine is melted, carefully remove the pan from the oven, so as not to burn yourself. Sprinkle the second teaspoon of garlic powder and the 1/2 teaspoon of salt into the pan. You do not have to use the extra salt. Now, very carefully, lay your rectangle of dough into the pan, over top of the margarine. Next cut the rectangle into narrow strips. One method of doing this is to cut the dough in half, then cut each half again, quartering the dough, and then cut each quarter into narrow strips. The margarine will creep up between the strips. This is normal. It is what gives these bread sticks their texture. After cutting your strips, place the pan in the oven, still at 425F, and bake them for 20 minutes. They will be browned and crispy when they are done.
• The parsley is simply for decoration. It makes the bread sticks look more gourmet, but it adds little to the flavor or the texture. Leave it out if you don't have any, or are running low. If desired, you may sprinkle the bread sticks with a little bit of parmesan cheese before or after baking. This tastes good, but once again, is optional.

Steps:

• Make dough using your favorite method- bread machine, mixer or by hand.
• Roll out into a 10x12 inch rectangle.
• Cut into strips about 3/4 inch wide.
• Give each strip a twist and place on a greased cookie sheet.
• Let rise for at least 20 minutes or more if you have time.
• Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes.
• Brush with butter and sprinkle with garlic salt and parmesan cheese.
