Ingredients

2/3 cup sugar

4 large egg whites, at room temperature

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter, melted, plus extra for greasing the pizzelle iron

2/3 cup flour

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat the pizzelle iron to medium-high heat.
  2. Whisk the sugar, egg whites, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl until frothy. Whisk in the butter, flour, and cinnamon until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  3. Brush the pizzelle cooking surfaces with melted butter. Spoon 1 tablespoon of batter in the center of the pizzelle iron. Close the iron and cook until deep golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer the pizzelles to a cooling rack. Cool completely. Store the pizzelles airtight at room temperature.
  4. Chef's Note: The batter can also be cooked in a preheated and lightly oiled waffle iron. Pour 1/2 cupfuls of batter into the waffle iron and cook for about 3 minutes.

OK, for those who are frustrated by this recipe, we had the same experience but worked through it.  We used cooking spray for the first batch of these and the chocolate made a huge mess.  Not wanting to waste the batter, we cleaned the press and tried 2 different methods for batch 2.  We brushed canola oil (not spray) on one side of the maker and melted butter on the other.  Both were far better than the spray but butter was the clear winner.   We may have had to clean the maker once more before finishing the full batch, but these cookies were in fact delicious.  I'm not sure I'd make them again because that whole thing was a pain, but I thought I'd share the tip about melted butter.  Brush liberally between each batch.
