pizzelles

Anise-flavored wafer treats

Pizzelles are thin, crisp Italian waffle cookies made by pressing batter between two hinged metal plates with decorative patterns, typically featuring intricate snowflake or floral designs.

Flavored with anise, vanilla, or lemon, they're traditional at Italian-American holidays and celebrations.
