Crazy Bread sticks

I made these for the mother daughter activity at our church.  They are called crazy because they can be on the table 40 minutes after starting them and it is crazy how fast they are eaten!!!

1 T. yeast (I use about 3/4 T)
1 1/2 C warm water
2 T sugar
3 1/2 C flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 C butter
Parmesan cheese

In large mixing bowl (like your Bosch) mix together yeast, water, sugar, flour, and salt.  Knead 3 minutes.  Cover and let rise 10 minutes.  While rising preheat oven to 325.  Melt butter and pour into large cookie tray that has sides.  Roll out dough and put in pan flipping over to coat with butter.  with pizza cutter cut down middle long ways and then in to 1 inch strips.  sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garlic salt.  Bake 20 minutes

For Crazy cinnamon sticks -sprinkle the buttered dough with cinnamon sugar.

I do this recipe in my Cuisinart food processor.  Add all dry ingredients pulse a few times to mix.  Add room temperature water while mixing.  Add the water till forms into ball. (I usually have about a tablespoon left over from the 1 1/2 cup--don't want it sticky).  Once in ball leave mixer on for 45 seconds to knead.  Then follow rest of above directions.  

You also can make these a head of time and cover in refrigerator till later and cook when ready
