Garlic Sticks

1 cup warm milk 1-1/2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 package yeast dissolved in 1/4 cup lukewarm water 3-1/2 cups flour Melted butter Garlic salt

Directions:
Mix milk, sugar, salt, and oil in a large bowl. In a small bowl, sprinkle one package of yeast over 1/4 cup lukewarm water and allow to stand until yeast is dissolved. Add to milk mixture. Add flour a little at a time, beating well after each addition. Knead dough on a floured board until smooth and elastic. Dough should be soft and slightly sticky. Cover dough and let raise for one hour in a warm, draft-free spot. Punch down dough. Roll 1/2 inch thick and cut with a knife into strips 1-1/2" wide. Twist each strip and place on a greased cookie sheet. Brush top of stick gently with melted butter. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Let sticks raise 1/2 hour. Bake at 350° until lightly browned. Serve warm.
