Directions: |
Directions:Beat eggs and sugar together. Add cooled melted butter or margarine, and vanilla or anise. Sift flour and baking powder and add to egg mixture. Batter will be stiff enough to be dropped by spoon. Batter can be refrigerated to be used at a later time.
Once Pizzelles are made, I stack them about 6 high on a cooling rack and place in a 170 degree oven for 1 hour. Then turn off the oven and leave in overnight to crisp up.
Makes about 30 Pizzelles |
