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.

Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the batter come together more smoothly and evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pizzelle tough and chewy.
- Use a hot pizzelle maker. This will help the pizzelle cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the pizzelle maker. Cooking too many pizzelle at once can cause them to stick together and cook unevenly.
- Let the pizzelle cool completely before storing them. This will help them to crisp up and stay fresh longer.
