# Ingredient List:

→ Dough and Dusting

01 - All-purpose flour for dusting

→ Cheese and Toppings

03 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

04 - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

05 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

→ To Serve

06 - Marinara sauce for dipping

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

02 - Allow pizza dough to come to room temperature. Lightly dust the work surface with all-purpose flour. Divide the dough into 10 even portions.

03 - Roll each dough piece into an 8-inch long rope, forming bulbous ends to mimic bone shapes. With scissors, snip each end approximately 1 inch deep and separate gently.

04 - Place the dough shapes on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring space between each piece.

05 - Brush each breadstick with melted butter and evenly sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

06 - Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until breadsticks begin to puff and turn light golden.

07 - Remove breadsticks from oven. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and return to oven for 5 to 7 minutes, until cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

08 - Allow to cool slightly before serving warm alongside marinara sauce.
