Ingredients

1 pizza dough
2 ounces mozarella cheese
Cornmeal

Instructions

Make the pizza dough as you normally would – or use the stuff you bought at the store – and let it go through its first rise as needed.
1 pizza dough
Grab a chunk of dough, about the size of a meatball or small ice cream scoop. Use a little extra flour to keep it from sticking to your fingers and flatten the dough into a rectangle about six by two inches.
2 ounces mozarella cheese
Scoop up a bit of the mozzarella and place it in a line through the middle of the dough. Pinch the edges of the dough together. Carefully roll the breadstick on the counter to ensure the dough seam will stay sealed.
Place a little extra cheese on the tops of the breadsticks, and place them on your cooking surface – either silpat on a cookie sheet or on a pizza peel sprinkled with cornmeal. Start preheating your oven to 450 degrees, and let the dough rise while your oven preheats.
Cornmeal
Bake the breadsticks for ten minutes, shoving them from the pizza peel onto your pizza stone or simply placing your cookie sheet in the oven.
When the are done, remove them and serve them immediately.
