Breadsticks, oh I have to profess my love to you! I’ve always been a breadstick kinda girl. I mean who doesn’t love hand-held carbs, right?
But when you have Cheese Stuffed Breadsticks it takes it to a whole other level. These are literally my favorite, easy, semi-homemade recipe.
With only 5 ingredients they are quick to put together, but I can almost promise you that you will consume them faster than they are to make.
At least that is me anyway, but it shows you just how much I am in love with this recipe! I love simple recipes to start with, and sometimes I don’t want breadsticks that come from a box.

HOW TO STORE:
These are best eaten right away when then come out of the oven, if you do have leftovers you can refrigerate them. To do this, place cooled breadsticks in an airtight container or zip top bag and place in refrigerator.
These should keep for up to 3 days. To reheat we like to place back in oven at 350 degrees F for 5-7 minutes.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- We use the fresh pizza dough that comes in baggies, you can usually get this at your local grocery store.
- You can use any other pizza dough as long as it is the same amount or you could use your own.
- If you wan’t to skip the string cheese, place fresh sliced mozzarella down the center instead.
- Make sure to seal your dough edges well so that the cheese doesn’t melt and seep out of the dough.
- Top with finely grated parmesan and serve with marinara sauce, if desired.
- Easily double this batch if making for a larger crowd.
