Pizzellis
A Pizzelle is a traditional Italian sugar cookie served plain or rolled into a cone and filled with fruit or ice cream.
They can be formed into cups by draping the freshly cooked hot pizzelli over the bottom of a small glass or a similar container. They can also be shaped into ice-cream cones. See also Sicilian cannoli recipe
