Pizzelle (made with butter)

By MeanJean

The butter will make them more flavorful than those made with oil.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs, room temperature
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon triple sec (you can substitute another liqueur or extract)
• 1-3/4 cups flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• Almond Pizzelles
• Omit the vanilla and triple sec flavorings.
• Add 1 tablespoon of almond extract or 2 tablespoons of amaretto.
• Add 3/4 cup of ground almonds to the batter.

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar.
Add the butter, vanilla, and triple sec.
Add the flour and baking powder and mix well.
The batter should be stiff enough to be dropped by spoon.
The batter can also be refrigerated for later use.
