taste by using other flavors such as anise,
almond or lemon extract.

2 teaspoons (10 ml) baking powder
3 large eggs
3/4 cup (175 ml) granulated sugar

Hand Mixer, mix on medium speed
for 1 minute, until thickened. On low speed, add
the melted butter and vanilla in a steady stream
and mix until combined, about 15 seconds. Add
the flour mixture and mix until just combined,
about 10 to 15 seconds; do not overmix.
It may be necessary to lightly brush both the
top and bottom grids with a flavorless vegetable
oil or melted vegetable shortening. Use the
spoon provided to scoop dough, about 1-1/2 –
2 teaspoons (7-10 ml), and drop onto one of the
patterned cookie grids; repeat to make a second
cookie. Close the lid and lock. The red indicator
light will come on. When the red indicator light
goes out and the green indicator light comes on,
the pizzelle are ready. For a lighter colored
pizzelle bake for a shorter time; for darker
pizzelle; add a few more seconds of time.
Remove pizzelle from the press using a heat-
proof plastic spatula and place on a rack to cool
completely. Warm pizzelle may be wrapped
around the dowel provided
to form cannoli shells. Completely cooled
pizzelle may be dusted with powdered sugar
before serving.
