pizzelles
This is my Grandmothers recipe and a family favorite and must have at Christmas and Easter. A hit at holiday pot lucks and on cookie trays! It makes a very thin, crisp delicate pizzella.

Ingredients
- - 1 dozen large eggs ( room temp.)
- - 3 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- - 2 1/4 cups vegetable oil
- - 3 tbls anise seed
- - 4 cups all purpose flour
- - 2 tsp baking powder
How To Make pizzelles
-
Step 1Beat eggs and sugar until sugar is dissolved and batter is creamy
-
Step 2Beat in oil and anise seed
-
Step 3Add flour and baking powder mix until combined and batter is smooth
-
Step 4Heat pizzelle iron. Drop batter onto hot iron. I use a 2 teaspoon scoop, irons may vary in size. Cook until done, time may vary by iron. My iron is old and does not have a timer. It does not take long 30-60 seconds. Add a bit of flour if pizzelles are too thin, but not too much.
