These are the best pizzelle out there! Make sure to use real anise oil, not extract, and only 1/2 teaspoon per batch is plenty. Buy anise oil on the internet if you can't find it locally.

These pizzelles were amazing! They were so easy to make, and they tasted even better than the ones I buy at the store.

The dough was too sticky to work with. I had to add a lot of extra flour, and the pizzelles still didn't turn out right.

These pizzelles were a little too crispy for my taste, but they were still good. I'll probably try making them again with a different recipe.
