EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If you can't find the Italian cheese blend, shredded mozzarella cheese makes a great substitute.

Cheese sticks may come in slightly different sizes and lengths. If you have a little extra cheese, just slightly overlap the pieces when placing them along the edge of the dough.
