CHOCOLATE PIZZELLE FROM KING ARTHUR



Chocolate Pizzelle from King Arthur image

Chocolate pizzelle � a delicious variation on the usual almond, anise, and rum-flavored cookies. Snapping crisp yet tender, pizzelle are a must-have at any Italian celebration. Got this in an email from King Arthur Flour and sounds great. It'll be awhile before I can make it do to finding ingrediants here in Beijing - but want to save it until I can get back home. I hope you give it a try and enjoy. UPDATE: Finally had the chance to make these and they were so easy and really good - next time I think I'll make the 2-tone (as in step #5) ones with a rum flavor and see how that goes.

Time 55m

Yield 28 Pizzelles, 28 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon espresso powder
3/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • Beat together the eggs, sugar, vanilla, espresso powder, and salt till smooth.
  • Add the cocoa and baking powder, again beating till smooth.
  • Add the flour, mixing till well combined. Add the melted butter, again mixing till well combined.
  • Bake pizzelle according to your pizzelle iron instructions. A tablespoon cookie scoop works well for scooping batter onto the iron; a level scoopful of batter is the right size for most standard pizzelle makers.
  • To make two-tone pizzelle: Prepare plain pizzelle batter, flavoring it with 1/2 teaspoon hazelnut flavor, if desired. Using a teaspoon scoop (which holds 2 level measuring teaspoons), drop a chestnut-sized ball of vanilla batter just below center in the cooking area of the pizzelle iron. Drop a slightly smaller ball of chocolate batter just above the center line, nestling it right next to the vanilla batter. Close the iron, and bake according to the manufacturer's directions.

Tips:

- For crispy pizzelles, use a pizzelle iron that has been preheated to the correct temperature. - If the batter is too thick, it will be difficult to spread and will not cook evenly. Add a little more milk or water until the batter reaches the desired consistency. - Be careful not to overcook the pizzelles, as they will become dry and brittle. Cook them just until they are golden brown. - If you do not have a pizzelle iron, you can also make pizzelles in a waffle iron. Just be sure to use a waffle iron that has a shallow grid pattern. - Pizzelles can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Chocolate almond pizzelles are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their crispy texture and rich chocolate flavor, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these pizzelles a try. You won't be disappointed!
