PIZZELLES



Pizzelles image

Pizzelle batter is cooked on a special iron (cialde iron), which gives them decorative patterns. Pizzelles can also be made into edible dessert cups -- fill these with berries and ice cream.

Yield Makes about 16 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Steps:

  • Heat a nonstick pizzelle iron. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Slowly add sugar, and continue mixing until well-blended. Whisk in vanilla and lemon extracts. Slowly add the cooled butter in a steady stream, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth.
  • Slowly add the sifted flour mixture, and keep whisking until flour is completely incorporated into the batter. Do not overbeat.
  • Fill a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch plain tip with batter. Pipe 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter in a circle in the center of each pattern on the heated pizzelle iron. Close the iron, and seal with the clasp. Cook for 50 to 60 seconds. Using a small spatula, remove pizzelles, and place on wire rack to cool.

PIZZELLE



Pizzelle image

Hailing from Abruzzo in Central Italy, pizzelle are crisp, flat waffle-esque cookies made in a special hot iron. Like mostaccioli, these cookies predate Christmas -- in fact, it is said that this is the oldest known cookie recipe on earth, dating back to the 8th century BC. In olden times, presses were made from cast iron and would be heated over a fire, or directly on the stovetop. You can still find those irons if you're up to the challenge, but electric irons are much easier to use, and very easy to find both online and at major retailers.

Time 1h55m

Yield 2 to 4 dozen cookies, depending on size of iron

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon anise extract, optional
3 large eggs
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Whisk together the sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, anise extract if using and eggs in a large bowl. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and continue to whisk until the batter is smooth. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour so the batter can hydrate.
  • Heat the pizzelle iron, and cook your pizzelles according to the manufacturer's directions.

HOMEMADE PIZZELLES FROM SCRATCH



Homemade Pizzelles From Scratch image

Learn how to make homemade pizzelles from scratch with this heirloom Italian recipe. Light and crispy, an iconic dessert for the holidays.

Provided by SimplyRootedFarmhouse

Categories     Desserts

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

spray vegetable oil (to grease pizzelle iron)
6 eggs
2 tsp anise extract
4 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 1/2 C all purpose flour (sifted)
1 C melted butter (cooled)
1 1/2 C granulated sugar
confectioner's sugar

Steps:

  • Melt butter and set aside to allow it to cool before use in the batter. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat eggs and sugar together. Next add vanilla, anise and melted butter. Sift flour and baking powder into mixture, and mix on low until the batter becomes stiff enough to be dropped by a spoon. If you have never made pizzelles before, the batter is surprisingly thick in consistency (and that's normal). The pizzelle iron closes very tightly, so the thick batter will fill all of the crevices. Once the batter is ready, it's time to preheat the pizzelle maker. Most have a light on the front to let you know once it is up to temperature. Spray the pizzelle iron with vegetable oil before starting to make pizzelles. You will likely have to spray it a couple of times at the beginning of baking, and then should be pretty stick-free. Now hunker down because this part takes a little bit of time. Drop about 1/3-1/2 tbsp of batter into the center of the pizzelle shape and close the pizzelle maker. Each iron is different, so follow the instructions on the iron that you have. We are using an old VillaWare Pizzelle Baker, and it takes about 15 seconds before the pizzelles are done. Once done, grab a fork and gently remove the pizzelles and lay them onto a flat surface. If they accidentally rip during transit, while still warm the pizzelles are still flexible. So it's easy to press them together again. Repeat until done. I had the pizzelles cooling on the table, and every time my two year old walked by he would slide one off and run away with it. So, if this is your method too, beware of disappearing pizzelles. Once the pizzelles are cooled, any excess can be broken off of the sides. Now it's time to add the confectioner's sugar over top! Pour confectioner's sugar into a sifter and sprinkle over each side of each pizzelle. Now they are ready to store until Christmas (or eat now of course). We stack our pizzelles about 10-12 high and wrap each stack in an airtight wrapper.

GRANDMA'S WAFFLE COOKIES (PIZZELLES)



Grandma's Waffle Cookies (Pizzelles) image

I could always count on finding these authentic Italian cookies in Grandma's freezer, and her house always smelled yummy! They're great dipped in milk. Grandpa was a blacksmith and actually made their waffle iron, which I still have, although I use my modern electric pizzelle maker when making these.

PIZZELLES III



Pizzelles III image

This recipe calls for a batter-like dough and is baked on a pizzelle iron. Powdered sugar adds an elegant touch. In the Italian version, vanilla is replaced by anise. Chocolate may also be used.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 50m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 eggs
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thick. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla. Sift together the flour and baking powder, and blend into the batter until smooth.
  • Heat the pizzelle iron, and brush with oil. Drop about one tablespoon of batter onto each circle on the iron. You may need to experiment with the amount of batter and baking time depending on the iron. Bake for 20 to 45 seconds, or until steam is no longer coming out of the iron. Carefully remove cookies from the iron. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
  • For chocolate pizzelles, add 1/4 cup cocoa sifted together with flour and baking powder, 1/4 cup more sugar and 1/4 teaspoon more baking powder. I find that for the chocolate mixture, the iron must be well oiled to start and then brush on more as needed.

MAPLE WALNUT PIZZELLES



Maple Walnut Pizzelles image

Pizzelles are light wafer cookies made from a simple batter flavored with a hint of lemon or in this case, maple. The batter is cooked on a special pizzelle iron (also known as a cialde iron) which embosses the cookies with decorative patterns such as flowers and stars. In central Italy, where the pizzelle originated, families would choose their own distinctive patterns and pass them down from generation to generation.
