### How to Make Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks
#### 1. **Preheat Your Oven**
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle about 12×8 inches on a floured surface. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
#### 3. **Add Garlic Butter**
In a small bowl, mix melted butter and minced garlic. Brush generously over the dough surface.
#### 4. **Add Cheese and Seasoning**
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the dough. Then sprinkle with Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
#### 6. **Slice and Garnish**
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Slice into sticks or squares, sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
