Christmas pizelle...

 My favorite Italian tradition at Christmas has always been making pizelle. As a kid I would watch my grandmother whip up batch after batch. I loved them warm when you could bend them into any shape you want. Cone them and fill with a sweet ricotta (simply add honey and lemon zest)...or cool them and sandwich with nutella and ice cream. My most recent experiments have been broiled for just a few seconds with yummy dark chocolate and marshmallows. But...I still prefer them at their delicious best...plain with a cup of camomilla tea. 

Here are a couple of links to what I think are pretty authentic recipes...enjoy!!
