These were very good! I didn't have powdered milk so I used a generous dollop of greek yogurt because I had already put the full amount of water in. Also, I don't have a bread maker. I like to do mine the old fashion way by combining the water yeast, and sugar first and let sit for a few minutes. Then I added the rest of the ingredients ( I melted the butter) and finally the flour. I let the dough do a double rise (quick 30 min rise in the bowl then a second rise after they were rolled into sticks). I added a Tbs. or so of garlic powder and some basil. They were devoured!

I added poppyseed, and I substituted olive oil for the butter. They were awesome! Everyone in my family devoured them!

These are amazing. Followed directions exactly, including the bread machine. Have made them twice already, and will be making them again and again I'm sure!

This was an on-the-fly grab for me while I was preparing stuffed shells for dinner one night. I don't own a bread machine, so I used my stand mixer w/ dough hook. Apart from too much sugar, which I reduced to just 1 T. (just our preference), these were just the best ever with such good texture! I added the recipe to my regularly used file. Thanks very much for a "keeper" recipe!

Love them! I baked them late, around 10:30pm just to test before making for thanksgiving and I couldn't stop eating them even thou I don't eat at night... Crispy on the outside and soft inside! Easily managing dough. I made them by hand. Didn't add any dry milk as I like to use natural stuff in my food and dry milk doesn't sound as from a cow... Anyways, I redused sugar, put only 3 tbsp. It took 15min in my oven. I will be making these again for Thanksgiving.

These were really good. I twisted some, and tied others into knots. Then I topped them with sausage and garlic. They were great with some marinara on the side. I reserved some dough to make cinnamon twists with, and my daughter loved them. Thanks for a yummy and easy to follow recipe!

I add a few cloves of minced garlic to the dough and brush with garlic butter before sprinkling with sesame seeds.

I bake alot of bread recipes and have tried a few different bread stick recipes and these were so good. My kids loved them, we dipped them in marinara sauce and my daughter must have eaten 6 of them. And when i asked them what they wanted for dessert they said they wanted more bread sticks. They told me to make these every night. I brushed them with parm cheese butter with garlic and oregano just before they were done. My kids had fun making different shapes with them.

Great breadstick! I used my bread machine. They came out soft. We loved the sesame seeds in there and the sugar definitely gave them a sweeter taste. After baking, I removed and added shredded mozz and ched cheese and put back in the oven until the cheese had melted...gone in minutes! Thanks Paula!
