It’s great that you want to share the cheesy breadsticks! After baking, you can store them at room temperature for a day or two in an airtight container to keep them fresh. For longer storage, it’s better to freeze them. Just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil. They can be frozen for up to a month.

When you’re ready to ship them to your husband, you might consider packing them frozen with a cold pack to keep them fresh during transit. They can then be reheated in an oven or microwave to bring back their delicious, cheesy goodness. Enjoy baking!

Yes, you can definitely use your bread machine to start the dough for the cheesy breadsticks on the dough cycle. Just add the ingredients for the dough as directed by your bread machine’s manufacturer, typically starting with liquids, then adding dry ingredients, and finally the yeast. Once the dough cycle is complete, proceed with the recipe by shaping the dough, adding the toppings, and baking it in the oven as instructed.
