During the holidays, she loved making pizzelles and after she passed away I got her pizzelle maker. I can't wait to make them for my annual cookie exchange!
Pizzelles
Beat 6 eggs well then add 1 1/2 cup sugar and 1 1/2 cup melted butter (3 sticks) Beat well. Then add 4 cups sifted flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder and 4 teaspoon vanilla. (Optional, 2 teaspoon anise extract) Add more flour to make batter stiff. Makes 100 pizzelles.
*You do need a pizzelle maker to make these and can buy one on Amazon or Williams-Sonoma for about $40-50.
Hugs & kisses, Nana! We miss you so much!! XOXO

Grazi! How sweet, my grandfather used to make cannolis, need to find that recipe! Isn't it funny how important food is in culture and keeping memories alive? We can pass those recipes on to our children and grandchildren. Great Post!! :)
That was the nicest tribute to your Nana. I enjoyed reading this and at this moment starting to make them. If you don't mind, I might snitch your idea to use with my mom. I just love it! Renee
