Pizza Hut breadsticks

I've scoured the internet and I've come across many copy cat recipes for Pizza Hut bread sticks and cheese sticks and while many have been close, none that I've read have actually been accurate.
The biggest mistake they make is putting the seasoning on before baking.

Since I used to work for Pizza Hut, I actually know the proper order in which things are done.

First, you need the dough recipe I previously talked about here.

This recipe will make 2 9x13 pans of bread sticks.

Follow the recipe to make the dough, divide into two equal parts and use a rolling pin to roll into rectangular shapes.  Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray, put one rectangle in that pan and freeze.  Freezing will retard the rising stage of the dough so you can use it at a later point.

Pour enough oil in the other pan to generously coat the bottom.  Put your dough in and place in the cold oven to proof using the previous instructions.
After proofing for an hour, use a pizza cutter or a knife to score the dough.
Bake at 475°F for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.

If you want cheesesticks, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella before placing in the oven.

Remove from oven, brush breadsticks with melted butter and sprinkle with seasoning.  For cheesesticks, just sprinkle the seasoning.

If you follow this recipe, you will get breadsticks and cheese sticks that look like this

Look at that crunchy, totally not healthy for you crust!

It's OK, I know your mouth is watering right now; so is mine!

Cheesy goodness!!

Oh, the seasoning on top?!?  You are wondering what it is?!?

Well, here you go my friend.  Mix this up in a shaker to sprinkle on top of your cheesesticks or freshly buttered breadsticks.  It also tastes great on pasta!!

Pizza Hut seasoning mix

2 tbs dry parmesan cheese
1/2 tbs garlic powder
1/2 tbs garlic salt
1 tbs onion powder
1 tbs oregano
1/2 tbs basil

I keep this mixture in a shaker in the fridge.  It really is quite perfect!

If you are freezing dough for later usage, just spray the pan as noted above.  When you want to use it, remove your still frozen dough from the pan, add the oil, replace the dough and proof normally.

Looks tasty doesn't it?
