Pizzelle Cookies

Ingredients & Directions


6 lg Eggs
1 1/3 c Sugar
2 2/3 c Flour
2 ts Baking powder
2 ts Anise (up to 3)
2 Sticks melted butter

These cookies are for an electric pizzelle iron, I have been making them
for 30 years.. The original recipe came from a dear friends grandmother:

Mix all together in a large bowl, I let it sit about an hour, it is a
little thicker than pancake batter, then put about a large walnut sixe in
the middle of each side and cook till light brown. The first few need to be
disguarded till the iron seasons. In the beginning I used to brush a little
butter on the iron but after all these years of use it is well seasoned and
I don’t need to do this any longer. After they cool I sprinkle a little
powered sugar on each one. They store wonderfully in an old coffe can (5
lb.) They also roll nicely around a wooden spoon handle when warm. I hope
you enjoy them. Makes 50
