CHEESY BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• In food processor, combine the flour, salt, cayenne and baking powder.
• Pulse several times to mix.
• Add the butter and cheese, then pulse for about 30 seconds, or until the ingredients are well mixed (it should resemble slightly moist flour).
• Add the sour cream and pulse on and off for about 1 minute, or until the ingredients come together as a moist, doughy clump.
• Remove the dough from the food processor, form into a ball, then cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, or coat it with cooking spray.
• On a lightly floured counter, roll out the dough into a large rectangle about 1/8-inch thick.
• Trim the edges to create a neat rectangle.
• Using a knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into strips 6 inches long and about 1/2 inch wide.
• Combine the scraps and repeat with remaining dough to make about 18-24 sticks.
• Gently twist each strip to create a spiral, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
