Grandma Bea would make pizzelles and store them in tin coffee containers. After she died, my parents bought a pizzelle maker and passed the recipe on to Andrea.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 c sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla (almond extract, anise or another flavor you like)
- 1/2 c butter melted and cooled
- 1 3/4 c flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- Finely chopped nuts optional
Servings: cookies
Instructions
- Beat eggs and sugar until light yellow.
- Add butter and vanilla, beat until blended.
- Sift together flour and baking powder (and cocoa if using).
- Fold into butter mixture.
- If using nuts, sprinkle on top of dough before closing iron.
- Bake on pizzelle iron as directed.
Recipe Notes
Optional: Use orange peel or extract instead of vanilla and add 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips to batter before baking.
