Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all‐purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ pound butter (softened at room temperature (you could use a butter alternative like Earth Balance to go dairy-free))
¾ cup sugar
3 large eggs (at room temperature)
grated peel of one lemon
3 Tablespoons fresh orange juice
¼ cup milk (I used almond milk to go dairy-free, but feel free to use whatever milk you like)
2 teaspoons anise extract (optional (or any liqueur like Strega))
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Steps:

  • Warm up a pizzelle iron.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and sugar until frothy and beginning to thicken (about 2-3 minutes).
  • On low speed, add the extracts and melted butter to egg mixture in a steady stream and mix for 30 seconds.
  • Slowly add the dry mixture to wet and blend just until combined. Your batter will resemble a soft and sticky dough.
  • Spray pizzelle iron lightly with baking spray.
  • Drop 1 tablespoon of batter on hot pizzelle press.
  • Close press and cook for about 1 minute or until light indicated cookies are done (cookies should be slightly golden).
  • Use a fork to lift pizzelle off the press and transfer to a cookie rack or plate to cool down (keep in mind that they should lay flat. While they are hot, they will mold into another shape if they're not completely flat).
  • Spray iron again and repeat process until you finish all the batter.
  • Dust with confectioner's sugar and ENJOY!
