Estimated time:
30 minutes to create, more or less, depending on skill -- around 10 minutes per batch to bake.

Number of servings:
12 per batch

Ingredients: (Hit your return key to start a new line)
tin foil
non-stick spray (Pam, etc.)
1 tube of breadsticks per batch
lightly beaten egg wash, optional

Directions:
Create 3-D cornucopia shapes by ripping large rectangles of foil and twisting into shape. (Make just one at first, to judge the size needed.) Make the cornucopias nice and plump at the "open" end, then pinch and curl up towards the other end.

Place the foil cornucopias on a baking sheet and spray each with the Pam (or other spray).

Unroll the breadstick dough, and using one breadstick per cornucopia, stretch and wrap the dough around and around the tin-foil shape to make dough cornucopias. Push and pinch the dough as needed; they will look cute even if not perfect.

If desired, brush with egg wash.

Bake according to tube directions, watching carefully, and remove when golden.

Let cool slightly, then pull out the tin-foil shapes -- they can be reused for more batches.

Other suggestions and comments:
Don't be frustrated if the dough is springy and uncooperative; let it sit a little, and don't be afraid to pull and push it.

These are awfully cute served on individual plates with baby vegetables tumbling out. They taste great, too!
