Ingredients

• 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry or pizza dough

• 2 tablespoons butter, melted

• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

• ½ teaspoon dried oregano or Italian seasoning

• Optional: grated Parmesan, red pepper flakes for extra flavor

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven: Set to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the dough: Roll out the puff pastry or pizza dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.

3. Add garlic butter: Mix the melted butter with minced garlic, then brush evenly over the dough.

4. Add cheese and seasoning: Sprinkle mozzarella evenly over the dough, then add oregano or Italian seasoning, and optional Parmesan.

5. Cut into strips: Using a pizza cutter or knife, slice the dough into 1-inch wide strips. Twist each strip slightly for a fun, crunchy texture.

6. Bake: Place the strips on the baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden and the cheese is bubbly.

7. Serve hot: Let cool slightly, then serve with marinara or your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips and Variations

• Extra crispy: Bake a few minutes longer for a crunchier texture.

• Flavor twists: Add a sprinkle of crushed red pepper, garlic powder, or fresh herbs for an extra punch.

• Cheese variety: Try a mix of mozzarella, cheddar, or provolone for richer flavor.
