I doubled the recipe and the cookies were awesome!
I love the flavor of these Pizzelle, however, mine were not crisp, they remained soft. Any recommendations on how to rectify it? Nancy T.
Turned out just like my grandmother makes! I can’t wait to share them with her!
Very, very light and break apart easily but the taste is amazing!
