Submitted by SarahBeth

"This is from the cookbook that came with my Cuisinart ABM I got for a wedding present! I can't wait to make these! NOTE: The yield is only a guess as it depends on how long you make them. Also, cook time does not including resting time for dough, or time in the bread machine."

"OMG, these are good!" said DH, and so they are. They are extremely flavorful, and the dough is easy to work with. I'd like to try these as mini breadsticks. Thanks for posting!

I had some problems with the dough but I think it's my machine that goes wrong cause the last time she did the same. I'll have to watch it. I had to do the breadsticks in 2 batches cause I had so many. Maybe DH rolled it too much. It tastes great :) Thanks SarahBeth :) Made for Holiday tag

Very easy to put together. Next time I will cut them about 6 inches long. I am not very good at the twisting part LOL I used a medium cheddar and should of used old for more cheesy taste. Part of the batch I sprinkled on some extra cheese on top after the oil brushing. YUM Made for Newest Zaar Tag
