Pizzelles have seen something of a renaissance in the past decade, as their flexibility in baking becomes more known.

 


Pizzelle is a crisp Italian cookie made from butter or oil, eggs, sugar, flour, and vanilla. The batter is cooked in a pizzelle iron, similar to a waffle iron, which has an intricately carved surface that imprints a floral design onto the cookie.

Pizzelles - Thin decoratively patterned Italian wafer cookies that are made in an iron similar to a waffle iron. They may be flat or rolled into cones and filled.

Pizzelles
From Better Homes and Gardens
The pizzelle (peets-TSEH-leh), a crisp waffle cookie, is one of the oldest cookie recipes known. These large crisp Italian cookies are made with a pizzelle iron.

Another favorite is a pizzelle maker (purchase for about $50 from Cooking.com or Amazon.comKitchen, or kitchen specialty shop, then use the Waffles recipe, p. 117 Low Protein Cookery for PKU, but making 50 thin, crisp pizzelles).

Every year I look forward to the tin of biscotti I receive from a friend; in addition, I like to make and give away the crisp Italian waffles known as pizzelle.
