Best Pizzelles I Recipes
PIZZELLES
These are really good Pizzelles. I found the recipe in a cookbook called The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Italian. I use Watkins Vanilla in mine, but you're welcome to use Anise if you prefer. These are traditionally made at Christmas time, but we like them all year long. If everything is uniform the yield is probably close to 5 or 6 dozen pizzelles. They keep very well in a plastic bag or covered plastic container. Prep. time and yield are approximate. You'll need a Pizzelle iron for this recipe. I use an electric model and plug it in prior to mixing the batter. It's heated and ready to use when I get the batter made. Spray tops and bottoms of mold with Pam (lightly) each time you add new batter to molds.

PIZZELLE
Hailing from Abruzzo in Central Italy, pizzelle are crisp, flat waffle-esque cookies made in a special hot iron. Like mostaccioli, these cookies predate Christmas -- in fact, it is said that this is the oldest known cookie recipe on earth, dating back to the 8th century BC. In olden times, presses were made from cast iron and would be heated over a fire, or directly on the stovetop. You can still find those irons if you're up to the challenge, but electric irons are much easier to use, and very easy to find both online and at major retailers.

Pizzelle batter is cooked on a special iron (cialde iron), which gives them decorative patterns. Pizzelles can also be made into edible dessert cups -- fill these with berries and ice cream.

Steps:
- Heat a nonstick pizzelle iron. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Slowly add sugar, and continue mixing until well-blended. Whisk in vanilla and lemon extracts. Slowly add the cooled butter in a steady stream, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth.
- Slowly add the sifted flour mixture, and keep whisking until flour is completely incorporated into the batter. Do not overbeat.
- Fill a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch plain tip with batter. Pipe 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter in a circle in the center of each pattern on the heated pizzelle iron. Close the iron, and seal with the clasp. Cook for 50 to 60 seconds. Using a small spatula, remove pizzelles, and place on wire rack to cool.
