Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare two baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Dough: Take the pizza dough out of the fridge and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, dusting the countertop with flour.
  3. Divide the Dough: Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and roll each into an 8-inch long rope.
  4. Shape the Bones: Form thicker ends on each rope, snip each end about 1 inch deep, and pull the snipped portions apart.
  5. Arrange the Breadsticks: Place each shaped breadstick onto the baking sheets, leaving space for rising.
  6. Add the Toppings: Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Bake the Breadsticks: Bake for 15 minutes until puffed and golden, then remove from the oven.
  8. Melt the Mozzarella: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over each breadstick and return to the oven for 5-7 minutes until melted.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the breadsticks cool slightly, then serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
