Initially, these weren't really what I was looking for but that's my own fault for not thinking about the ingredients more carefully. I was looking for a crispy more butter cookie like texture and these are soft and more like small bread sticks. I realize now that's from the baking powder. I used garlic salt instead of regular and an additional cup of freshly grated sharp cheddar (didn't seem like enough cheese to flour for me initially). I rolled out and cut them to about pencil sized per the instructions and they took closer to 10 minutes to bake. The result was a soft, very cheesy small breadstick with just a hint of heat. They were quite good, just not what I had in mind. As I was going for a crispier result, I let them cool, turned them on their side, and put them back into a 300 degree oven for about 25 minutes (like you would with biscotti). It worked - light, flaky, crispy and cheesy little cracker like sticks.

I ended up using a Devil's Food mix b/c I didn't have yellow on hand and they were still great. I used a store bought frosting and sprinkled the tops with a few chocolate chips. I think I ended up with 30 cupcakes. They were a hit and I'll definitely make them again.

We really liked it. No crazy flavors - just yummy comfort food. Likle others - I did make a few changes. I upped the garlic (3 cloves, minced), subbed italian seasoning for oregano (heaping tsp), added to chicken broth and olive oil and marinated all day. I kind of pulled the skin back on the pcs and smooshed them down into the marinade. When it was time to cook I placed the chicken in the baking dish, smoothed back the skin and poured the marinade over the top. I cooked for 1 hour at 450, occasionally spooning the saauc eove rthe chicken. I added the balsamic vinegar and sprinkled with parmesan 15 minutes before it came out. Chicken was flavorful and juicy with cripy skin. It makes a tasty, brothy, somewhat oily sauce that was delicious spooned over the chicken and the roasted potatoes I made as a side. Will definitely make again.
