The Very Best Pizzelle Cookie Recipe

[@Islandrara]

ANISE INSTEAD of vanilla is so GOOD

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

I totally agree but my kids hate the anise and I can’t eat a whole batch myself without having to buy bigger pants. 🤪

[@lindaobrien8538]

I prefer vanilla

[@pyropls]

great video but just for future reference they are pronounced "PIT CELLS"

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

Thanks! :-)

[@raymond5194]

Hi Kelly can you please tell me the recipe if using a vintage hand pizzelle maker stove top. I've read that the batter must be thicker. Thanks. Nobody has actually shared this recipe. Also they use electric makers. Thanks

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

You can use this recipe for a vintage iron, it is pretty thick so it works well for almost all irons.

[@raymond5194]

@@TheSuburbanSoapbox your recipe thanks so much

[@lostinmyspace4910]

I like to pipe melting chocolate both milk chocolate and white chocolate in strands on each pizzelle for decoration and taste. I also like to sprinkle colored sanding sugar on the iron first, then dollop the batter. When it spreads out you get colored sugar melted into the batter. Fun decorations during Christmas.

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

Great idea!

Do yoou add the chocolate after the pizzelles are cooked?????

What kind of flour?

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

I used all purpose flour but for a crisper cookie, 00 flour yields amazing results!

[@marieseewald5005]

Kelley, just read your Italian Pizzelle recipe. May I please suggest "Pizzelles Recipes from Italy handed down from one generation to another.. I am 2nd born Generation 80 yrs old . All my grand parents born in Italy & Sicily. And grand parents brought here to America most of their Native Country recipes.. Their Best Italian Cookie Recipe is Pizzelles.. Italians 90% with grand parents from Italy will tell you the #1 mistake American do when they make ANISE PIZZELLES, using Anise EXRACT... We Italians NEVER USE "ANISE EXTRACT." We use ''ANISE PURE OIL.'' Little bit pricey but well worth the price. $23.99 Pure Anise Oil 8 oz. bottle. Nothing smells your house up while you are cooking the cookie in your Pizelle Iron. I just order my bottle of Anise OIL, as I was getting low on it. I use 1-2 Tablespoons in my recipe.. I mix it well with my cool melted butter and eggs beat it well. I did notice My recipe is double your size recipe.. So if you ever decide to purchase and try the ANISE PURE OILS, I suggest you use 1 TLB. Anise Oil. Once you try it, you would never and I mean never go back to Anise Extract. The Anise EXTRACT burns off in the iron intense heat, as it looses it's flavor in the cookie.. But use the oil it is well worth it.. And the difference in the 2. And your home will smell of Anise oil for a good day/12 hrs.. nothing like that smell in your home. I just purchase my latest bottle from Amazon. DIABETIC PIZZELS Oh, one more thing of interest. Last week I use a box of ''PILLSBURY ZERO SUGAR, SUGAR FREE YELLOW CAKE MIX.. I made a batch of Sugar Free Pizzelles...from the sugar free Pillsbury cake mix. First time I made Pizzelle sugar free cake mix.. I have been using this yellow sugar free cake mix for my husbands favorite cookie, Chocolate Chip/walnut now for a couple of yrs. and I also ues same zero sugar free mix for Banana Nut Bread and Carrot Bread.. So why not try it for pizzelles. Glad I did. Diabetic Friendly Pizzelle 4 Eggs 2 Sticks = 1/2 lb MELTED BUTTER ''COOL'' 1Tlb. ANISE OIL (NOT ANISE EXTRACT 1 Box Pillsbury ''SUGAR FREE ZERO SUGAR YELLOW CAKE MIX" 3 TLB. FLOUR Mix in large bowl, melted cool butter, Anise oil. & eggs, blend well. Gradkually add 1/2 cake mix blend well, add other half cake mix plus 3 Tlb Flour. I mix mine well, then cover bowl and put in fridge for 2 hours to mellow flavors together. Heat up iron till good and hot... use 2 teaspoons, dip one in the mix put good amount on spoon, use other spoon to push batter off on the iron placing slightly off center towards back of point center. balance so wont squeeze out the sides when close.. Usually takes 25-35 sec..I open to check wellness. I like mine pale in color, some people likes their kind of toasted.. Always air dry them before stacking up. Never stack if still warm.. Once cool stack I place our in seal tight tins or plastic containers with air tight lids. Enjoy.. Marie Floriolli Seewald

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

Thank you for the tip! Anise oil is hard to find but I agree is much better than extract!

Those are the thickest ive ever seen but it probably really helps when making the little taco and rolling it up? I love them thin but iver never had luck molding them. Maybe the baking powder does the trick.

[@TheSuburbanSoapbox]

Oh yes! Definitely use the baking powder for thicker cookies and no baking powder for extra crispy flatter cookies. But if they're thin you can't roll them or fold them like a taco because they'll crack.

[@cathyvanoli8544]

I have trouble with the amount of dough to each cookie! I either put too dough on the spoon or not enough !!! I have to grill with the 4 smaller cookies. Can you help

[@foxracer1703]

@@cathyvanoli8544 I find that I can't always put the batter right in the middle. Depending on how your appliance presses...for example I have to put my batter sort of toward the front of the press. And even with that I use a tiny silicone spatula to trim the edges before I take them off and put them on the cooling rack.
