These Cheesy Garlic Pizza Sticks are what would happen if the perfect garlic bread and the most delicious cheese pizza were to get married.
Seriously.

Because, really? What’s not to love about these babies?

Of course, if you aren’t as in love with garlic bread as I am, just omit the garlic from the recipe and you’ll still have some more amazing cheesy pizza sticks that everyone gobbles up like they are going out of style.
My mom always makes these, but without the garlic,butter and pizza sauce, we’d call them ‘Mama’s cheese sticks’. When I saw these, it brought me back to a few years ago when she used to make them, she still makes them now, but every once in a long while. These look so good and cheesy!!
Oh your family has got to LOVE you even that much more when you whip up a batch of these babies! 🙂
I just picked up some yeast and I need to make these soon! YUM!
