Turn dough out onto a floured surface; knead lightly 4 or 5 times. Divide dough into 18 equal portions, shaping each portion into an 8-inch rope. Place ropes on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

Bake at 450° for 10 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. Remove from oven; cool on a wire rack.
