Cheese Stuffed Breadsticks

These were so good they were gone before I had a chance to get a picture of the finished product! Next time I'm going to double or triple the recipe and freeze some.

Cheese Stuffed Breadsticks

1/2 Tb yeast
1/2 cup warm water (~120 degrees)
1/2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tb olive oil
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup white flour
~1 cup mozzarella cheese (either shredded or brick cheese works)

Mix together the yeast, water and sugar and let sit until the yeast in bubbling, a few minutes. Add in salt, olive oil and both flours to form a dough. (I also added some garlic powder and a dash of garlic salt) Knead until soft and let rest for 5-10 minutes, covered. Seperate dough into 6 chunks. Roll each into a breadstick.

Using a rolling pin, flatten each breadstick. Lay cheese, either cut strips (which I used) or shredded cheese, onto the center of the breadstick. Wrap the dough up over the cheese and seal tightly. The seals are easier to make when you use slices of cheese, but can still be done with shredded.

Cover and allow to rise fr ~10 minutes. Then, bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes, until they are golden brown.
