### Step 4: Shape the Breadsticks
Cut the dough into strips about 1–2 inches wide. Twist each strip slightly for a rustic look or leave them straight.
### Step 5: Bake to Golden Perfection
Place the strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and the cheese is bubbly.
### Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Brush extra garlic butter on top after baking and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color. Serve warm with marinara sauce or your favorite dip.
