Special Precautions and Tips:

• Do not overmix the batter, as this can make the Pizzelles tough.
• Use a cookie scoop to drop the batter onto the baking sheet for even-sized Pizzelles.
• If you don't have a Pizzelle iron, you can use a waffle iron instead. Just be sure to grease the waffle iron well and cook the Pizzelles for a shorter amount of time, as they will cook more quickly in a waffle iron.
