Time 1h

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 eggs, beaten
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon anise extract
cooking spray
¼ cup powdered sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat a pizzelle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Beat eggs, sugar, and butter together using an electric mixer. Add flour and extracts; beat until combined.
  • Spray the inside of iron lightly with cooking spray.
  • Drop batter by teaspoonfuls into the center of each pizzelle grid. Close lid and bake until steam stops and cookies are light golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds.
  • Peel pizzelle off using a fork and lay flat on a newspaper. Sprinkle with powdered sugar while warm and let sit for 1 minute. Dust the other side. Repeat with remaining batter to make about 30 cookies.
