Servings: 18

Yield: 3 dozen

Ingredients

½ cup ground walnuts

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking powder
3 large eggs eggs

1 cup white sugar
⅓ cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, stir together the ground nuts, flour, cocoa and

baking powder; set aside. In a separate bowl, beat eggs on the high
speed of an electric mixer, gradually add the sugar and mix until
thick and yellow. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla. Gradually stir in

the flour mixture, just mixing enough to combine.

Step 2

Heat up the pizzelle iron until a drop of water dances on the surface,
then slightly reduce heat. Drop 1 rounded tablespoon of batter for
each cookie. Close the lid and bake for about 2 minutes, depending
on your iron. Turn cookie out and trim before cooling on racks.
