In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil, then mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Punch down the dough and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle approximately 9x12 inches in size.
Use a pizza cutter or knife to divide the dough into 12 strips. Gently twist each strip and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown.
While the breadsticks are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Stir in garlic powder, parsley flakes, and Parmesan cheese until well combined.
Once the breadsticks are done, immediately brush the garlic butter mixture generously over each breadstick.
Serve warm on their own, or with a side of marinara sauce or melted mozzarella cheese for dipping.
