Pumpkin Pizzelle Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the pizzelle iron.
• Beat the sugar and butter until light and fluffy, then add the eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla.
• Sift the dry ingredients together, then fold into the sugar mix.
• Lightly brush the pizzelle iron with butter, then drop a teaspoon amount of dough onto the iron. Close the lid and bake for 34-60 seconds.
• Remove. Before the cookies cool, you can shape them into cones or rolls or shallow bowls, if you want, or leave them flat.
• Repeat buttering the iron as needed and dropping on dough and baking it until all the dough is gone.
• Garnish by dusting with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Whisk together the sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, anise extract if using and eggs in a large bowl. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and continue to whisk until the batter is smooth. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour so the batter can hydrate.
• Heat the pizzelle iron, and cook your pizzelles according to the manufacturer's directions.

Steps:

• Preheat pizzelle press. Beat butter and sugars until fluffy. Add eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla. Combine well. Sift remaining dry ingredients together. Add gradually to pizzelle mix. Drop mixture onto centers of cookie molds. Close iron and cook 30-60 seconds. Remove finished cookies and lay flat to cool.

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.
