Gosh, my grandmother use to make so many different kinds of cookies. I'm sorry to say I don't remember the names of them. One that my sister still makes is 3 different colors, frosted and usually candied sprinkles. Always at weddings, we'd have a few trays of these cookies. It was a must at any Italian wedding. I remember ones that were seeded on top and a few had the anise flavor,and one vanilla flavored that always had a cherry on top. DC, a couple people at work bring pizelles to work every Christmas. I love them. I'm thinking perhaps different Italian families have different selections of sweets, because I don't remember either of my grandparents, nor my mother making pizelles, but I really like them. TIS

Did they look like these SC : Thats them!! They had a sweet icing! What are they called? Biscotti di Ricotta My mother in law makes them along with Pepper Cookies. They look similar in shape and size but they are made with chocolate dough and I guess pepper. They do have a little bite. They go good with beer. Sorry no picture.
