PIZZELLE
Hailing from Abruzzo in Central Italy, pizzelle are crisp, flat waffle-esque cookies made in a special hot iron. Like mostaccioli, these cookies predate Christmas -- in fact, it is said that this is the oldest known cookie recipe on earth, dating back to the 8th century BC. In olden times, presses were made from cast iron and would be heated over a fire, or directly on the stovetop. You can still find those irons if you're up to the challenge, but electric irons are much easier to use, and very easy to find both online and at major retailers.

Steps:
- Whisk together the sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, anise extract if using and eggs in a large bowl. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and continue to whisk until the batter is smooth. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour so the batter can hydrate.
- Heat the pizzelle iron, and cook your pizzelles according to the manufacturer's directions.
PIZZELLE
This recipe was adapted from one that my Italian-born mother and grandmother followed. They used old irons on a gas stove, but now we have the convenience of electric pizzelle irons. These delectable cookies are still a traditional treat in our family. —Elizabeth Schwartz, Trevorton, Pennsylvania

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thick. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla. Sift together the flour and baking powder, and blend into the batter until smooth.
- Heat the pizzelle iron, and brush with oil. Drop about one tablespoon of batter onto each circle on the iron. You may need to experiment with the amount of batter and baking time depending on the iron. Bake for 20 to 45 seconds, or until steam is no longer coming out of the iron. Carefully remove cookies from the iron. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
- For chocolate pizzelles, add 1/4 cup cocoa sifted together with flour and baking powder, 1/4 cup more sugar and 1/4 teaspoon more baking powder. I find that for the chocolate mixture, the iron must be well oiled to start and then brush on more as needed.

PIZZELLE
Pizzelle, which some say are the original cookie, are thin waffle cookies from the Abruzzo region of Italy. They're made of a simple batter of flour, eggs, sugar, and butter, and are cooked in a pizzelle iron (available at cooking supply stores and online sources) that is either electric, like a waffle iron, or handheld over the stove, which is what we use. Note that this recipe makes enough batter for 16 pizzelle. They should be served the day they're made, but the batter lasts for a week in the refrigerator so you can reserve the extra batter to cook fresh pizzelle whenever you want them. We serve pizzelle with the Caramel Coppetta with Marshmallow Sauce and Salted Spanish Peanuts (page 296) and also sticking out of each serving of gelato or sorbetto. Thin wafer cookies are often served in a coppetta of gelato in Italy, and it just makes the presentation more festive.

Steps:
- Toast the anise seeds in a small skillet over medium-high heat, shaking the pan constantly so they don't burn, for about 1 minute, until they are golden brown and fragrant. Pour the seeds onto a plate and set them aside to cool to room temperature.
- Combine the sugar, egg whites, vanilla, and salt in a medium bowl and whisk until the ingredients are smooth. Add the butter and whisk to incorporate. Add the flour and anise seeds, and whisk until the flour is no longer visible. Transfer the batter to an airtight container and refrigerate to chill for at least 2 hours or as long as one week.
- Spray the inside surfaces of an electric or handheld pizzelle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat the pizzelle iron over medium-high heat. Spoon 1 tablespoon of batter in the center. Close the iron and cook until it is deep golden on each side, 2 to 3 minutes, turning often. Open the iron and, using a small spatula or knife, carefully remove the pizzelle to a flat surface to cool. Use the spatula or knife to scrape off any excess cooked batter along the edges of the iron and repeat, spraying the iron with nonstick spray and preheating it before adding more batter, using the remaining batter to cook as many pizzelle as you are serving. When the pizzelle have cooled completely, transfer them to an airtight container and store them at room temperature for up to one day.
