Quick Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks

Preheat your oven to 400° F.

In a small bowl, thoroughly mix together until a smooth, uniform paste forms...

• 3 tbsp butter, softened
• 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tbsp dried basil

Arrange open-faced on a baking sheet....

• 4 hot dog buns, split

Evenly spread the butter mixture over the cut sides of each split bun to create individual "breadsticks".

Bake at 400°F for 8-10 minutes (or broil for 1–2 minutes), keeping a close eye on them until the edges are deeply golden brown and perfectly toasted.

Serve immediately while hot!
