      Title: Copycat Olive Garden Breadsticks
 Categories: Breads, Sauces
      Yield: 12 servings
 
    1/4 c  Unsalted butter
      1 c  Whole milk
      2 tb Instant yeast
      1 tb Granulated sugar
    1/2 ts Salt
      1 lg Egg
  3 1/2 c  High-quality A-P flour

MMMMM-----------------------GARLIC TOPPING----------------------------
      4 tb Unsalted butter
      1 ts Popcorn salt
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
 
  Set the oven @ 400ºF/205ºC and line a 9" X 13" baking
  sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  
  In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  Then, stir in the milk and warm to 110ºF/43ºC.
  Alternatively, you may also melt and warm the milk in
  the microwave for 30-60 seconds at 50% power.
  
  Editor’s Tip: Don’t overheat the milk mixture. Doing so
  will kill the yeast and inhibit your dough from rising
  sufficiently.
  
  Next, add the yeast and sugar to the bowl of a stand
  mixer fitted with a dough hook. Slowly add the warmed
  milk to the yeast and sugar and gently stir to combine.
  
  Editor’s Tip: If you’re using instant yeast, you can
  move on to the next step. If using active dry yeast, let
  the yeast, sugar and milk/butter mixture proof for five
  minutes until foamy. Then, proceed to the next step.
  
  Next, with your stand mixer on its lowest speed, stir in
  the egg and salt before adding in 2-1/2 cups (300g) of
  flour. Continue to mix, adding the remaining 1 cup
  (120g) of flour until dough clings to the hook and the
  sides of the bowl are clean. The dough should be smooth
  and soft.
  
  Increase your mixer to its second speed and knead the
  dough for 3-4 minutes. Alternately, you may knead by
  hand for 6-8 minutes.
  
  With lightly floured hands, divide the dough into 12
  equal pieces, approximately 65 grams each.
  
  Then shape the dough into 12 breadsticks, and place them
  1" apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
  
  Cover loosely with a tea towel or plastic wrap, and let
  the dough proof for 10-15 minutes in a warm place. The
  breadsticks should rise and puff slightly during this
  period.
  
  Editor’s Tip: If you have a proof setting on your oven,
  feel free to use it for this step.
  
  Uncover the breadsticks and transfer them to the
  preheated oven. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until
  golden brown.
  
  While the breadsticks are baking, prepare the garlic
  butter by melting the butter on your stovetop or in the
  microwave. Remove from heat and then stir in the salt
  and garlic powder. Set aside.
  
  Remove the breadsticks from the oven when golden, and
  immediately baste with the melted garlic butter. Serve
  warm with copycat Olive Garden soup and salad.
