Olive Garden Breadsticks {Copycat}

Unless you are living under a rock, I'm sure you've been to Olive Garden and had a basket of never-ending, deliciously divine breadsticks. I personally am not a huge fan of Olive Garden, but I love their breadsticks. I would totally go just to eat them. I tried my hand at a copycat recipe before, but it failed miserably. I was weary to try another one and was terrified of disappointment, but thankfully this recipe is spot on and absolutely fabulous!
