### **How to Make Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks**

1. **Activate the Yeast**
In a small bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy. This indicates the yeast is activated.

2. **Prepare the Dough**
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until the dough comes together. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

3. **Let the Dough Rise**
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 30 minutes or until it doubles in size.

4. **Preheat the Oven**
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.

5. **Roll Out the Dough**
Once the dough has risen, roll it out into a rectangle, about ¼-inch thick, and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

6. **Add the Garlic Butter**
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and minced garlic. Brush this mixture evenly over the dough.
