My lifelong friend Madeline gave me this recipe. Her family is Italien and her two aunts would make these every Christmas & Easter with an iron that you held on the stove. Making 1 at a time. They are the best I've tasted.

Ingredients

  • 6 - eggs
  • 3 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup butter (you can use margarine but i prefer the butter)
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons anise flavoring. i do not use imitation flavoring but real extract. i get it on line.

How To Make pizzelles

  • Step 1
    Beat egg. melt butter but don't add to eggs yet. Let it cool first. Add sugar gradually, beat till smooth. Add cooled butter Anise flavoring.
  • Step 2
    Sift flour, baking powder. Add egg mixture, dough will be sticky. Pizzelle iron must be hot enough or it will definitely stick. I use 1 rounded tbsp. of mixture in center of each design on iron. I usually take them off after about1 minute. Be careful and watch them because they will brown fast. Yield: 6 or 7 dozen
