Create eerie yet delicious breadstick bones by twisting refrigerated dough into bone shapes, baking until golden, and serving with marinara dip. This simple recipe transforms basic ingredients into a festive snack that's sure to delight both kids and adults at your Halloween gathering.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Set your oven to 350°F and lightly coat a cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Remove the breadstick dough from the tube and separate the pieces. Cut each breadstick in half crosswise, then take one half and split it again lengthwise to create two thin strips. Align the ends of these two smaller strips with the longer half and wrap them around the end, forming a knot-like shape by overlapping them. Repeat with all dough pieces. Evenly sprinkle grated Parmesan over each bone.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, until they turn light golden. Allow to cool briefly, then serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping.
