This recipe calls for a Pizzelle press. They are FANTASTIC! If you love almond, you will love these. Ever since I was a child, my mom has made these thin, crunchy cookies that were a hit with everyone in the family! The pizzella is a traditional Italian waffle cookie and flavored with different flavors such as Anise, Vanilla, Orange or Almond. We prefer the Almond!
3 Eggs
1 3/4 C Sugar
3/4 C Melted Butter
1 t Almond Extract
3 C Flour
1/2 t Salt
1/3 C Ground Almonds
Directions:
Beat Eggs. Add sugar, melted butter and almond extract and beat well. Add remaining ingredients and beat. Spray baking grids with cooking spray. Drop dough by small cookie scoop (About 1 T) onto the preheated grid. I like to roll my dough into balls and put them onto the grid that way. Bake for 60 seconds or so, until golden. Note: The griddle will stop steaming when they are close to being ready. Use a thin spatula to remove the pizzelles. Cool on a cooling rack.

These are my favorite! We used to make these all the time when we were kids! They're really good with a little powdered sugar on top!
