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

For Chocolate Pizzelle:
To try the chocolate version, increase the sugar by another 1/4 cup. Then add 1/4 cup cocoa powder sifted together in the flour-baking powder mixture with an extra 1/4 teaspoon baking powder as well. I find that for the chocolate mixture, the iron must be well oiled to start, and brushed with more as needed.
