Healthy Snacking Double Cheese Whole Wheat Breadsticks

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup finely shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp onion powder
1 (1 lb) loaf frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed
1/4 cup butter, melted
Kosher salt, optional

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease a baking sheet.
In a shallow bowl, combine the cheeses and the seasonings; set aside.
Divide dough into 16 even pieces.
With your hands, roll each piece into a thin 'stick' about 6 inches long.  Repeat for each dough piece.
Dip each stick into the melted butter, then roll through the cheese and seasoning mixture and place on prepared baking sheet, each about 2 inches apart; let the dough 'rest' for 10 minutes before baking.
Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
Remove and sprinkle immediately with Kosher salt if desired, then slide off onto a cooling rack to cool before eating.
Serve with hot cheese or hot mustard dips if desired.
You'll get several dozen breadsticks depending on how thin you roll the dough.
