In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a breadstick shape, about 8 inches long.
Place the shaped breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Brush the breadsticks with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the breadsticks are still hot, sprinkle them with shredded mozzarella cheese and return them to the oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted.
Remove the breadsticks from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy your Hot Diggity Breadsticks with your favorite dipping sauce!
