[Sca-cooks] Pizzelles

[Fairy Tale Designs]

I had the sweet kind. They turned out just fine.  Not bad for my first time, but getting the amount of batter and cooking time was a bit rough. I think I wasted 5 out of 30.
   
  I used the recipe that came with the machine
  3 eggs
  1 3/4 flour
  1/2 cup melted butter
  2 teaspoons baking powder
  1 tablespoon vanilla (it also suggested anise, which I didn't have)
  3/4 cup sugar
   
  Was going to drizzle some chocolate syrup in them but realized that the kids used it all to make chocolate milk. 
   
  Had also found a modern recipe for Cappuchino flavored pizzelle.  make them into little cones and then dip in chocolate to just get 1/3 done. Maybe fill with some chocolate whipped cream.  MMMM chocolate........oh wait hazelnuts would be good too......
   
  Will try some savory tomorrow.

So, are you making savory or sweet wafers/pizzelles?

If you are making the former, please let us know how they turned out 
and if they were soggy?

I've tried the savory versions, but have been less than impressed as 
they have either been rather soft or messy or both.
