I bought a vintage puzzle maker, and this recipe worked perfectly for me.

In reply to The Clean Eating Couple. The minute I saw your Pizzelles I knew your iron was very old, like the first one I owned. In time my first iron broke and I could never get that beautiful design(like a stained glass window) ever again. I hung on to my plates for years, hoping I could find a company that was willing to recreate the wonderful design again.If a person has an older iron, possibly passed down from an Italian relative, and it is not a non-stick, and they find their cookies sticking, it is because their iron is not hot enough. In using the older ones, during the process, you may need to give your iron time to heat back up. When cookies stick to those older irons, trying to clean them thoroughly is extremely important, because if you don't every cookie after that will have dark brown flecks on the new cookies, because they are burnt pieces of the one that stuck earlier.

My first attempt at making pizzell, very easy and delicious. My only problem was getting the dough positioned in the press to get a perfect shaped cookie. I used a cookie scoop and placed the dough slightly behind center seem to work the best. We really like them, our 2 dogs absolutely love them

The key to crisp pizzelles as noted is to allow them to completely cool. Growing up, that meant cooling spread out in a single layer on a tablecloth on the dining room table OVER NIGHT. (We had no pets) In the morning, they were crisp and ready to package up. We stored them in air-tight old popcorn or potato chip tins. I still cool them and store them this way. This recipe is the most similar to my mom’s recipe. I can’t wait to try it.

In reply to Roseann. Hi! Unfortunately the iron I used is over 50 years old and no longer made. I've linked a pizzelle iron in this post. This one is very highly rated on Amazon! I wouldn't adjust the recipe at all. They're thin and crispy!

Love your video. They look so easy to make. What I need to know is the name of the manufacturer of the pizzelle machine? I like the thinness of the pizzelle. The batter looks quite thick. Can I adjust the recipe to make the dough thinner?
Can’t wait to make them.

For my first attempt, they turned out pretty good. Trying to perfect the cookie without the dough spilling out. Regardless of how they look, they taste delicious!

In reply to Carol. You could do that, but they're not great with ice cream, they will get soggy because they're so thin.

Could I take them to potluck with a carton of ice cream. Would that work?
