Pizzelle Cookies
3 eggs 3/4 cups sugar 4 oz butter, melted 2 tsp vanilla 1 tsp grated lemon peel 1 3/4 C. flour 2 tsp baking powder
Beat eggs and sugar until light yellow. Add melted butter, vanilla, and lemon peel. Sift together flour and baking powder, and fold in gradually. Heat pizzelle iron hot enough to make a drop of water sizzle when it hits the iron. Spray Pam or brush butter lightly on first set of cookies. Place about one tablespoon cookie dough on the iron. Bake about 30 seconds. Remove and cool on rack. <!/--c-->

Pizzelles
1 1/4 c. flour 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 2 eggs pinch salt 1/2 c. sugar 1 tb. anisette or 1 tsp. pure anise extract 3 oz. (3/4 stick) sweet butter, melted and cooled a little
Sift flour and baking powder.
Whisk eggs and salt together, then whisk in sugar, then flavoring, then melted butter. Add flour and stir in well. Should be fairly thick.
Use about 2 tsp. for each cookie. Bake on preheated, lightly greased iron for about 2 min, or until golden and firm. The timing is variable, so just watch them and judge by the color. Don't peek at them until the steam stops coming out the sides of the iron. Cool on a rack, and be sure to store airtight or they won't stay crisp. Makes about 2 dozen. <!/--c-->

Pizzelles (can be halved)
12 eggs 4 cups sugar 2 1/2 cups melted margarine or oil 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon lemon extract 1 teaspoon almond extract 2 tablespoons anise seed 5 or more cups of flour
Using a full-size electric mixer or a hand-held version, beat all ingredients except flour together in a large mixing bowl. Slowly add in the flour, with mixer on a medium setting. When the dough becomes too thick for the beaters, switch to a sturdy wooden spoon. Continue adding flour until the dough reaches a gluey consistency that can best be described as "viscous." As a test, try turning a teaspoonful of dough upside down -- it should stick to the spoon while oozing a little, but without dripping or running.
Preheat the pizzelle iron. When it's ready, drop about 1 teaspoon of dough onto the center of each mold and heat according to the directions. Remove from iron, and place on a flat, covered surface to cool (I cover the kitchen table with a clean bed sheet so I have plenty of room). As the pizzelles cool, they can be stacked and stored in an airtight container.
Yield: about 12 pizzelles per egg. <!/--c-->

Beat eggs and sugar until light and foamy. Add melted margarine a little at a time. Add anise seed, anise flavoring, vanilla, grated rind and orange juice. Gradually add flour to make very light dough, light enough to drop on the pizzelle maker with a spoon. Preheat pizzelle maker and grease with margarine just before using.

Grandma made figure-eight shaped dough "pretzels" and cooked them stove-top in the hand-made scissor-action iron Grandpa made for her as a wedding gift in 1911. <!/--c-->
