Bread Sticks

Who doesn't like a warm bread stick with a bowl of soup or a big ol plate of pasta!!
I love these it is a fight in our house for the last one....so much that I have to triple the batch half the time.
Hope ya'll enjoy.

1 1/2 c. warm (105-115 degrees) water
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
3-4 1/2 c. flour
1 c mashed potatoes (cooked)

Dissolve yeast and sugar in water until bubbly. about 10 min.
add salt, flour and potatoes. mix until ball forms. Turn down and knead until smooth.
place in greased bowl cover and let rise until doubled.
punch down dough.
roll dough on to floured surface about 1/2 inch thick.
with pizza cutter but into strips. roll out into snake form...(you know just like you did with play dough when you were little...lol)
fold in half and twist...works great to loop around your finger to twist.
place on greased cookie sheet. bake until golden brown at 375...brush with butter and garlic and parsley!
