Pizzelles (Classic Italian Cookies) image

A light and crunchy Italian cookie. I've never been a big fan of anise, so I make mine with a light lemon flavor instead. You'll need a pizzelle iron to make these. They're a family favorite here!

I've made pizzelles many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The dough was easy to work with and the cookies baked up evenly.

The pizzelles turned out perfectly! They were crispy and delicate, with a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. I will definitely be making these again.
