CHEESE BREADSTICKS 
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
2/3 c. milk
1/3 c. butter, melted
1 egg
1 tsp. water

1/8 teaspoon of each: oregano leaves, marjoram leaves, basil leaves, dash rubbed sage can be substituted for Italian seasoning.

Heat oven to 400 degrees. In medium bowl combine all ingredients except egg and water, stir until mixture no longer sticks to bowl (2 to 3 minutes). Knead dough lightly 10 times. Divide dough into 24 equal pieces. Roll each piece into 6 inch rope. Twist 2 ropes together, press lightly at ends. Repeat with remaining dough. Place on greased cookie sheet.

In small bowl beat egg with water; brush on breadsticks. Bake for 12 to 17 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet immediately. Yield: 12 bread sticks.

Wicked easy. Not dry at all. Little difficult to "roll" the ropes out but wonderful in the end.

Really tasty. I rolled them out and sliced the "sticks" with a sharp butcher knife. Sprinkled just a touch of Kosher salt on the top after the egg wash. Excellent with my soup and salad lunch. This is a keeper.

I just made these and followed the recipe to a T, they turned out pretty good. The taste is similar to homemade pretzels. I would recommend brushing melted butter on top, immediately after they are done. They would be excellent with marinara sauce. They were not quite as cheesy I had would have liked, so I may remake them and use 1 and 1/2 cup cheese.
