Very pretty! My first thought when I saw the title was "oh fun"! Have a great weekend:@)
ReplyDeleteOh, I love Pizzelles! But can't remember when I last had one :-(
ReplyDeleteYou displayed them so beautifully at your tea party. Sweet little helper!
I married an Italian and that is his favorite sweet of all time....well, maybe not PINK ones, though, haha.
ReplyDeleteHis mom makes them all the time - and he craved them so much...so I bought him a pizelle iron for his b-day a few years back and HE makes them all the time. He says it helps being Italian to make really GOOD ones, haha.
Cute post, and just in time for Pink Saturday!
: - )
Have a great weekend, Kitty!
Hugs!
I've never had these homemade....sounds like I need to find myself an Italian friend...or an Italian husband like Michele. Hee hee! They do look yummy though, so thanks for sharing the recipe with us. Hope you have a wonderful weekend Kitty!
ReplyDeletePizzelles remind me of lace, they are so cute. Love the idea of pink. How clever. We worked at Williams Sonoma one Christmas and sold a lot of pizzelle machines.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful weekend.

Those pizelles are gorgeous besides looking so delicious. I have a friend who makes them too and they are so good.
ReplyDeleteYesterday for my Eiffel Tower Parisienne Birthday luncheon (I'll post about it next week) I made your marshmallow icing for the birthday cupcakes. Wow was that ever fast and GOOD! It's a winner Kitty. Have already shared it with one of my daughters who likes to do some cake decorating. I'm going to put a link to you when I post the food for the luncheon. It was so fast and easy and quite delicious. YUM!
Thanks to you my dear blogging friend,
Nann
These cookies look so lacy and dainty; I have never tried to make them. Yours look so pretty with all the lovely dishes and adorable helper!
ReplyDeleteI have always though pizelles were so fancy and fun but I've never tried them. I have a waffle cone maker that I think may also work for this. I've got your recipe pinned and I'm going to give it a try. Thanks so much for the idea!

Hi Kitty! I was lucky enough to grow up with an Italian grandmother, so pizzelles were a part of my childhood. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe--they look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHi, Kitty, I would love to have a pizzelle maker. I've never even eaten them but I know everyone seems to love them so much. Would a waffle iron work for these cookies?
ReplyDeleteI love pizzelles, I only make them for holidays and special occasions as my recipe makes a ton of them. I also love them flavored with vanilla and a little cinnamon. xo P.S. The plate your great aunt painted is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh yummy good Kitty. Great recipe and the pizzelles are so pretty, perfect to sever in your pretty tea set.

These sound wonderful! How exciting you got to cruise and take cooking lessons with Cat Cora. I do hope you'll post about the experience. Have a great weekend. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteI love pizzelles! Lemon is my favorite. I received a gift card from Amazon for Mother's Day, I could get a pizzelle maker! Hmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteKatherine
mmmm I love pizelles, I call them "pretty cookies", lol! They remind me of lace doilies:)Yours look delish and I love your pretty cups, they look so dainty and lovely color. Thanks for sharing the recipe and for your sweet note. Have a wonderful week!Hugs,Poppy
ReplyDeleteI love that they're PINK!!!!! So cute. I can think of so many occasions to serve these. Thanks for sharing them!!
ReplyDeleteThey look yummy and pretty! I love your painted porcelain, as well!
ReplyDeleteYour pizzelles look pretty, Kitty! I have enjoyed trying various pizzelle recipes. There are many on the internet, even savory ones. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteBeth

I have never tried them, but they look great and delicious!
ReplyDeleteI have been making pizzelles since I got married 37 yrs. ago. My mom made them every Christmas and I have her recipe. It makes LOTS of them; uses a dz. eggs and 1 lb. butter but I give a lot of them away as gifts and I figure since I have to get the iron out and everything I might as well make a lot of them. I have never made them pink; I might just do this for a tea party.
ReplyDeleteYummy, and so pretty! Delish.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, and perfect for afternoon tea!
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteI have never had a pizzelle. Yours look so pretty and I imagine would be a treat for tea time. Pretty china too. Thank you for sharing and have a delightful day.
Blessings,
Sandi
Hi Kitty,

I know I commented on how good these looked before, but just wanted to drop by again to thank you for linking your pizzelles up at Your Cozy Home Party.
ReplyDeleteI love these!!! I can't wait to try your recipe. Thanks so much for sharing at Mix it up Monday :)
ReplyDeleteFantabulous, Kitty!
ReplyDeleteI want to make some now! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Susan and Bentley
These look like so much fun to make and tasty too! Your little helper is so cute!
ReplyDeleteOmg, my boys loved these, wonder what they would think if i resurrected this fun treat.. thanks for the recipe.. Darling helper you have! have a blessed week and weekend.. xo marlis
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness, I haven't thought of these for years! We used to have a maker. I wonder what happened to it? You will have me hunting this weekend. Anise oil sounds like an intriguing touch. Looks like you made someone very happy! What a cutie!
ReplyDeleteCan you believe I have only had pizzelles once!
ReplyDeleteThe talent you have in the kitchen....I just love it!!! I figured there had to be a special contraption in which to make them because the shape is just so intricate and pretty. I don't eat a lot of cookies these days, but I remember munching pizzelles at many weddings in the past. SO tasty! Pink, my favorite color, just makes them even more special!!! Have a great holiday weekend, Kitty. I just know you'll be cookin' up something fun!
ReplyDeletePerfectly Delicious Post! I LOVE pizzelles, and you have made such an elegant table display with them and your GORGEOUS dishes. I especially am ALWAYS attracted to delicately painted dishes. Yours are PRICELESS to Me!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO MUCH for the recipe!
Have a wonderful week,
Big Hugs,
Donna
What a special time with your daughter. The pizzelles look amazing. What a treat. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteWhat a very special time with your adorable helper. I want to come to your tea, those Pink Pink Pizzelles look lovely and delicious. I just love the Anise flavor. Hope you have a great holiday week end and thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!

What a talent you have for cooking! Pretty and yummy:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog:)
Hi Kitty, when I was in my 20's, my sister borrowed a pizelle maker from her MIL and we made pizelles for the first time. I will never forget it. Thanks for sharing yours! xxoo Debbie
ReplyDeleteI have never had these, but they sound very tasty.
ReplyDeleteI have a pizzelle maker and never used it! I don't like anise, but i should make chocolate or lemon!
ReplyDeleteLove your little helper! Pretty dish! Thanks for linking to Let's Dish, Kitty!
Kitty, I love pizzelles. I remember eating many of these as a child. Happy Memorial Day weekend and Pink Saturday.
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty!
ReplyDeleteThese are new to me. I am definitely not Italian but The Mr. is half Italian. His grandfather ran a bakery in Sacramento years and years ago. I wonder if he made these...
I spy that little cupcake teapot and LOVE it!
Thanks for sharing this at my Bunny Hop Party!
