Recipesfull introduces to you: Italian Recipes. (Grandma's Waffle Cookies (Pizzelles) Recipe). I could always count on finding these authentic Italian cookies in Grandma's freezer, and her house always smelled yummy! They're great dipped in milk. Grandpa was a blacksmith and actually made their waffle iron, which I still have, although I use my modern electric pizzelle maker when making these.
