SIGNORA PALATINOʼS PIZZELLES

This recipe comes to us from a woman who recalls it as the recipe used with the original cast iron hand-irons that were first produced by black- smiths in the Abruzzi region of Italy. This recipe is preferred by some who like a much harder and heavier pizzelle cookie.

6 eggs

7 cups flour (all purpose)

2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon anise seed (optional)

1 cup butter, margarine or oil, melted (1/2 lb.)

4 tablespoons baking powder

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

≈Beat eggs and sugar. Add cooled melted butter or margarine, and vanilla and anise seeds. Sift flour and baking powder and add to egg mixture. Batter will have a dough like consistency. 1 inch round balls can be formed to be placed on the grids. Makes about 60 pizzelles.

Using any of the Pizzelle recipes above, try these variations. The possibilities are endless!

PIZZELLE CON CIOCCOLATTE

Add 3 tablespoons cocoa and 3 tablespoons sugar to the basic Italian Pizzelle recipe. If desired, you may substitute chocolate flavoring instead of the vanilla and anise flavorings.

SWIRL PIZZELLES

So many people have suggested this idea that we couldnʼt resist pass- ing it on to you. Make one basic recipe and set aside. Now make one Pizzelle con Cioccolatte recipe adding three drops of red food coloring.

Drop 1/2 teaspoon of basic batter and another 1/2 teaspoon of chocolate batter onto the center of each grid pattern during baking. Two-toned swirl pizzelles!

ALMOND PIZZELLES

Omit vanilla and anise flavorings from the basic recipe. Add 1 tablespoon almond extract or 2 tablespoons Amaretto. Add one cup of finely chopped or ground almonds to the batter.
