Instructions

  1. Preheat the pizzelle maker.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until well-combined.
  3. Mix in the vanilla and anise extract, then the melted butter.
  4. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until smooth.
  5. If desired, add the cocoa powder to half of the batter.
  6. If needed, very lightly grease the pizzelle maker by dipping a towel in oil and brushing across the molds.
  7. Add a heaping tablespoon of the prepared batter just behind the center of each mold. Slowly press down to close the lid until the latch clicks.
  8. Cook until lightly golden, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Gently transfer to a wire rack using a fork or spatula and repeat with remaining batter.
  9. Store in an airtight container once the cookies are at room temperature.
  10. If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
