1. Prepare the Dough
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle or oval shape and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
2. Make the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic and a pinch of salt.
Brush the mixture generously over the entire surface of the dough.
3. Add the Cheese
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Add parmesan cheese for extra flavor and richness.
Finish with parsley for color and a fresh, herby taste.
4. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Let it cool for a minute, then cut into strips.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Serve warm with marinara sauce or ranch dressing on the side for dipping. These breadsticks are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when the cheese is still melty and stretchy.
Tips for the Best Results
Crispy edges: Let some cheese spill over the sides—it crisps up into the best cheesy crust.
Switch up the cheese: Try adding cheddar, provolone, or a cheese blend for extra flavor.
Add a kick: Sprinkle red pepper flakes on top before baking for a little spice.
