By ctozzi

These yummy Cream Filled Pizzelles are great for the holidays or any event that you'd like to make special. They're really good!

Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 cup butter melted, (2 sticks)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese softened
• 1/2 - 3/4 can condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 8 ounce container Cool Whip or 8 ounces of whipped cream

Preparation

Step 1

Whisk the eggs and the sugar until pale yellow, thick and frothy.

Add the melted cooled butter and vanilla. Mix to combine.

In a separate bowl, whisk the flour and baking powder together. Add to the batter. Mix to combine.

Heat the pizzelle press until it's hot. Using two small spoons, place about a tablespoon of batter slightly behind the center of each pizzelle design. The batter will spread forward as it bakes. Bake for a few minutes, just until the pizzelles are slightly golden.

Working quickly, wrap the hot pizzelles around a clean marker. You won't be able to shape them into a cylinder if they cool even a little bit, so work really fast. You don't need to use a marker, but it's easier for me that way. Repeat will all the batter.

Meanwhile, to make the filling, using a paddle attachment on a standing mixer or using a hand mixer, cream the cream cheese and condensed milk until the mixture is smooth.

Add the vanilla. Fold in the Cool Whip or whip up some cream in a separate bowl and fold into the cream cheese.

Fill a piping bag with the filling and fill the pizzelle.
