Cheesy Bones

INGREDIENTS:

1. 1/4 cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese
   
2. 1 pkg. (11 oz.) refrigerated soft breadsticks
3. 1/2 cup KRAFT Classic Ranch Dressing
4. 1 Tbsp. hot pepper sauce
   

DIRECTIONS:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
  
• Spray baking sheet with cooking spray. Place cheese in pie plate.
• Separate breadsticks; cut each crosswise in half. Working with one piece at a time, stretch each to 5-inch length; tie knot at each end. Roll in cheese until evenly coated on all sides.
• Place, 2 inches apart, on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake 8 to 10 min. until golden brown. Meanwhile, mix dressing and hot sauce until blended.
• Cool breadsticks slightly. Serve with dressing mixture.
  

KITCHEN TIPS:

• For a spicier dipping sauce, increase the hot pepper sauce mixed with the dressing.
  
• These breadstick bones can be made ahead of time. Reheat in microwave just before serving.
