Pizzelles

Crazymomma in Vancouver's Note:

I have a Pizzelle Iron that was my mother's and I make these every Christmas. I roll them while they are hot and once cooled, I dip the ends in melted Dark Chocolate and lay them to dry on wax paper.

I love these. I helped my host mom in Germany make these for New Years. She would give these as a gift. They rolled theirs like sugar cone on a cone shaped roller, and put cream inside.
