ITALIAN PIZZELES 
6 eggs
3 1/2 c. flour
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 c. butter, melted and cooled
3 tsp. baking powder
2 tbsp. vanilla or anise

Do not substitute oil for butter.

Beat eggs, add sugar, beating until smooth. Add cooled melted butter and vanilla or anise flavoring. Mix flour and baking powder. Add to egg mixture. Dough will be sticky enough to be dropped by teaspoons. Bake on waffle or pizzelle iron. Place 3/4 teaspoon on each section of iron. Bake approximately 45-60 seconds.

DO NOT grease irons. If you want golden brown, bake a little longer. May be eaten plain or sprinkled with 4X sugar. Keeps weeks in tin cookie container.

Makes 60.
