Would make this again.
Pizzelles are a family favorite. I cant seem to get mine to be soft, eventhough they still do taste delicious crispy with jam, chocolate, or caramel.

These are very yummy cookies, not very easy to do the first time, and not so common in this city, but still...I like it so much!

My husband is from the northern pan handle of West Virginia and pizelles are a Christmas time favorite I had to learn to make. This recipe is nice and easy. This is the first recipe that makes just enough for two, although I myself do not like anise. You can replace it with orange or lemon or even black walnut (yummy) flavorings for those who do not like the taste of licorice.
