Pizzelle resemble small bite sized calzones. I have stuffed these with some Italian favourites, cheese and olives, spiked with basil and pepper. Pizzelles are an example of a by-product becoming very popular in its own right. It was originally made using left-over dough (usually pizza or bread dough) folded around a tasty morsel (probably left-overs as well). Pizzelle are either deep fried or baked and are always served hot. Seal the ends of the pizzelles very tightly so as to prevent the cheese from oozing out while they are being baked. Serve them hot with a spicy tomato sauce.
