You must try these nuts! Even though I dislike spicy cuisine, I adore these. I’ve been cooking them every week since my mother gave me the recipe!
| Prep Time: | 15 mins |

| Total Time: | 50 mins |
| Servings: | 24 |
| Yield: | 2 dozen |
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup white sugar
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed
Instructions
- Beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl until thick. Stir in melted butter and vanilla. Sift together flour and baking powder, and blend into the batter until smooth.
- Heat the pizzelle iron, and brush with oil. Drop about one tablespoon of batter onto each circle on the iron. You may need to experiment with the amount of batter and baking time depending on the iron. Bake for 20 to 45 seconds or until steam is no longer coming out of the iron. Carefully remove cookie from the iron and repeat with remaining batter.
- Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
- To try the chocolate version, increase the sugar by another 1/4 cup. Then add 1/4 cup cocoa powder sifted together in the flour-baking powder mixture with an extra 1/4 teaspoon baking powder as well. I find that for the chocolate mixture, the iron must be well oiled to start, and brushed with more as needed.

Very easy and so delicious!
Definitely needs some anise oil or extract.
The recipe was delicious my only problem was I felt that a pizzelle cookie is supposed to be a little bit more crisper than what it came out as. Any suggestions for a crisper cookie.
They are great and very easy to make , a fast cookie to make with little mess to clean up after .
THIS WAS A++++++++, at first I thought this wasn’t a good recipe, but I is me and my family loved it
I haven’t made Pizzelii’s in quite a few years now. I had to look up a recipe and I’m so happy that I found this one. It went so smoothly and was so easy. Thank you so much for this recipe. To the lady who said she had such a difficult time forming one Pizzelii, I might suggest that maybe she didn’t measure well. If you measure the ingredients with a scale, there is no problem with the batter. I actually swirled some homemade caramel sauce between two cookies at a time and made my rendition of Stroop waffles. They are delicious.
Pizzelle’ turned out perfect!
These were awesome!! I also made some with Lemon Extract and another with Almond Extract.
This recipe worked well. Next time I will try making a batch of chocolate cookies. I used my Cuisinart pizzelle maker and set it for 3, which worked great. I also shaped them with a microplane.
My mother always put anise in according to taste.
I have never made these before and enjoyed making them this morning. I used vanilla and a very small amount of anise seeds. The flavor and texture was great. I look forward to making these cookies again.
Great recipe! Made three flavors, vanilla, almond and anise.
Changed NOTHING and it was perfect. Such an amazing base recipe to just mix new and fun batters, but this was amazing as is. 10/10
Easy to prepare. Did the standard almond flavor. Tasty. Came out great.
This is a great recipe. I made a batch with the classic anise, instead of vanilla, and another with rum extract. Yum!
I made the chocolate chip ones.. DELICIOUS. Batter was very thick but when put on the hot griddle and squeezed close they were awesome… Some were a little small at first. You have to figure out your griddle, but well worth it.. I made it and did not chill them as a few said.. 10 stars!
Our first time making pizzelles. Turned out great! Subbed a tablespoon of anise extract for the vanilla.
Excellent! I added (1) tablespoon of anise seeds. Really nice and easy rescue. No other additions or changes.
After using various recipes, this one is a keeper! Easy, manageable batch and excellent results! I even made a batch of the chocolate pizzelles. They are AMAZING! Treating my neighbors tonight!!
Simply perfetto! I’ll try them chocolate next time. My wife bought pizzelle iron by mistake, but finally it found it’s deserved spot among other appliances.
one of my favorite will make it again and again
