Creating Cheesy Philly Stuffed Breadsticks Treat is a process that fills your kitchen with delicious aromas and your heart with joy. Follow these easy steps to make your own:
1. Prepare the Yeast Mixture: In a bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, add flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until it forms a dough.
3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Let It Rise: Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
5. Prepare the Filling: In another bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until well combined.
6. Roll Out the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle about ½ inch thick.
7. Cut Into Strips: Cut the dough into evenly-sized strips, about 2 inches wide and 6-8 inches long.
8. Fill the Dough: Place a spoonful of the cheese mixture onto one end of each strip. Fold the dough over to enclose the filling and pinch the ends to seal.
9. Shape the Breadsticks: Gently twist the filled strips so that they take on a fun shape before placing them on a greased baking sheet.
10. Preheat the Oven: While shaping, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
11. Egg Wash: Whisk the egg and brush it over the tops of the breadsticks for a golden finish.
12. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
13. Let Cool: Remove the breadsticks from the oven and let them cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
